Web Design with XHTML CSS and ...?

Hi everyone! I am a "web designer" is not what he does for a living or anything, but I really enjoy building websites with Dreamweaver, WordPress, Expression Engine, Joomla, etc. .. Anyway, I'm so caught up in "table-based design "and it is obvious that the standard these days is" design without tables "with XHTML and CSS ... Sooo ... I'm thinking of buying a book on the subject and hope that all the experts out there can recommend a good year for me because I can not afford to spend $ lotta in a lot of books. What be a good book for a person with average knowledge of HTML to take the next level?? Thanks! Wow! Thanks for all the quick response! I guess I should add to the request of websites on the subject ... Of course! How old school of me to get books!

I just finished writing a book exactly on this issue. HTML / XHTML All in One for Dummies teaches exactly what you're talking about. I start from the beginning with strict XHTML strong hand, strong teaching fundamentals. Although Dreamweaver does not really need more, there are editors who can help you create great code. I recommend (and are) Aptana, an open source high programmers editor. Aptana has several features that make it a great editor: It has code completion (start writing HTML or CSS and gives a list values of the legal codes that you can choose from) it also has syntax coloring, showing the different parts of your code in different colors. Recognizes potential errors on the fly, marking them so you can see the problems, even before looking at the editor. Following the XHTML care coverage, shows how style to your pages with the powerful language of CSS. First describes how to manage the colors of text manipulation, boundaries, and the like via CSS, and then take you through CSS-based markup. Once you understand how CSS works, you'll see what tables are considered outdated. You will be able to float designs, menus, layers, and design positions. You will learn how to build XHTML / CSS pages that adhere to stricter standards and get some tools and tricks to ensure their pages comply with the rules. Upon passing the third mini-book (eight) and will be quite a web developer out, but I wanted to write a book that take you beyond the basics. If you've been in the web world for a long time, you're certainly curious about the programming side of things. The fourth book covers the language JavaScript. Even if you have never programmed before, you will be able to create useful programs embedded in Web pages. You learn how to validate form data, get input from the forms, and even encourage their pages with JavaScript code. The real action is happening on the server, so that explains how to get started programming language server-side PHP. I give you everything you need to begin programming in PHP on the CD-ROM that comes with the book. You'll learn how to respond to user input, saving files on the server, and connect to databases. The data are, of course, the driving force on the Internet today days, so the sixth book describes the MySQL administrator popular and powerful relational database. (Included in CD-ROM, of course) that will take you through the SQL language and show how to build basic databases, and then go beyond the basics of data normalization, the skill is used to model complex data relationships. The hottest area on the Internet right now is AJAX, a technology that meets the client side and server side programming. I include a mini-book on how to build AJAX including AJAX connection by hand, and the use of (you guessed it, included) jQuery library to simplify programming AJAX and achieve some degree of interactivity and amazing special effects for your page. The latest mini-book covers the practical aspects of getting your site Operation: How to install a server, how to choose an external host, how to plan large projects, such as building management systems content, and more. The book is available in most bookstores and online at Amazon and other stores. Actually not too expensive, taking into account that over 900 pages of extras. It is written in the relaxed style Dummies. I'm not trying to impress anyone with how smart I am in this book. Only I show you some really fun things I've learned over the years. Most have found that participation style and informative. You are welcome to look over the book's website which has all the sample code in this book, http://www.aharrisbooks.net/xfd me know if you need any help (my email address is included in the book)
