ISTD - coding my website

Home page (index)

Creating the simplest web page possible


Naming web page and previewing in Safari


Creating a stylesheet in CSS and specifying font, colour and size


Linking the stylesheet to the index page



Re-create layout using CSS - create a DIV, #container and add dimensions for width, height and background colour


Go to index page and add DIV id, and close


Preview in safari (final background colour will be white but using colour will allow me to make sure the coding is working)


Centre container


Creating a navigation bar


Centre navigation


Preview


Adding columns


Positioning columns


Changing height of container and columns


 Preview


Putting my header in


Inserting header image - returns to homepage when clicked


Preview


Adding rows


Adding space for images


Preview


 Changing the z-index so images go below fixed header


Adding images and removing colour




All images added, zoom of web page at present



Adding buttons to the navigation bar - by making all over my buttons separate and different measurements, I was able to make it so they reached they end of the width of column 2 whilst also having an equal distance in between





Adding drop down boxes



Making headers and rows transparent by removing background colour



Creating a template and creating pages from template
