I apologize in advance for not realizing the obvious nature that blogging exudes.
I rarely go back and edit one of my blog posts. I am probably more likely to change the date on the re-post manually just so my censorship will not show up. Having just realized that the URL to the blog is just a post, I shall repost to this to this one until told otherwise.
The week of 5-10 was pretty simple so far. Connect to the sftp host Einstein and upload a simple html file. The simple page I created did nothing more than show a mustard like background and a simple hello world. Nothing to write home about, but still something to be judged on.
So here I am again, taking another web class. It will never cease to amaze me that no matter how much you try to learn, there is more around to soak up and no shortage seems to exist. I see the same trend appearing with even classes that some would assume they are “above”.
For example, I can create this website, host it on a machine that I have built and know where it is physically. I keep it safe from people that try to guess passwords and then take care of email services for more than 100 people. I back up the data to another machine I have built to safeguard. There is also more than a dozen websites for local companies that are close friends that are taken care of. I of all people should be exempt from having classes such as these, right?
I have learned from previous web classes that you get what you try to learn. I have never known there was a <dd> tag until today and I can see good uses for it in the future. This is a result of studying for class, buying a $100 book that is big enough to kill an elephant and taking the time to read the first chapter.
By the end of this class, I expect my raw HTML skills will be much better and the years of scars from learning HTML 2.X will finally fade.
