Hello everyone, im writing a guide on HTML for begginer's up to hopefully by then advanced users. and im in the alpha stages right now. And im asking gamerenders What topics should all be discussed. below is my current table of contents! Table of contents An introduction to HTML What program do i use? Basic structure Adding content styles Using CSS Div tags Adding a basic form Adding form with PHP(advanced) Putting it all together! ------------ Extras Add-ons Scripts glossary I want to go very in-depth on all topics for begginers. so what all did i miss. i need every tiny inch. i actually plan to market this book, probably within a year. so ya i need it to be VERY user friendly to beginner's. As a thanks i will see about sending a copy to anyone who sends relevant data that i use.
dont forget you have to make website so even people with colour blindness can read and use them so make sure people know which colours to use (basic of the basic) id place it as a note in either introduction to html or basic structure, just make sure you got it in there. also how to upload need to be in there. just give em a list of types of hosting (freehosts, own server(thats advanced abit though) or paying for space(small businesses need to kno this)) and just throw in examples eg 'fasthost' or 'freewebs' (now called 'webs'). i think u covered everything, what i ask is that you just remember to add my points.
