We had 9 people attend our HTML Bootcamp today and all 9 graduated!
Marie was the adviser this time and led the group through tags, images, links, headings and loads of other information in our conference room. Stacy and Monica helped our campers as they worked on writing a letter home.
Special thanks goes out to the guys at Tranquility: Travis for getting our projector mounted & Josh for letting us borrow his wire-less keyboard. We had enough room for all of our campers thanks to you both!
Even if you didn’t get to attend this Lunch and Learn but are feeling adventurous enough to venture on into HTML Bootcamp on your own we’ve attached the materials below: Read More >
Ahh a lovely cart of hexadecimal color codes for the web.
To make a spot of text change color use the six digit color code in place of the ff0033 in the code below (the # symbol must be placed in front of the text for color to change in all browsers):
Example: What ever you want to be colored
Code: <span style=”color:#ff0033;”> What ever you want to be colored</span>

To create a link to an email addresses type in: <a href=”mailto:email@emailaddress.com“>Email Address</a>
So just put mailto: in front of the email address in the link field.
Make sure there is no space between the email address and the mailto: that will make the function break in some browsers.
To do this in a content managment system or blog such as WordPress do the following:
Ever notice how large the return is in between lines of your posts to your blog?
It looks like a double space ha? What’s going on here? Well to get technical when you hit the “enter” key on your key board it’s interpreted as a paragraph and creates html code accordingly:
<p> Paragraph here </p>
But what you may want is a smaller space between items
such as this…
But how do you get this lovely small space between lines of text?
Simple! Just hold down your “shift” key then hit “enter” (while you’re holding down the “shift” key of course.) This will result in the spacing you so desire!
This action creates a <br> tag instead of a set of <p></p> tags, click on your HTML tab if you don’t believe me.
Happy blogging!
