Spend 3 weeks mastering HTML and CSS!!

I have started HTML by myself since I was in the semester 1. That time I think I can`t wait until semester 2 and also I was free a lot. So I started to google for free HTML tutorials from the internet I found many but just a few that seem to be useful! The first I see WWW.W3SCHOOL.COM Yeah W3SCHOOL is the biggest reference and tutorial for web development on the net. But I didn`t like it very much and then I go to another is WWW.HTML.NET .

Ah, Html.net is not very good website that provide HTML tutorials but it is very easy for beginner to understand and get the picture and then I went back to W3SCHOOL that we can see more with example and reference. After that I found that I need to learn CSS Yeah! HTML is not enough it just a simplest language I also start my CSS.

My step with CSS is so complex no website that can make us easy to understand that why I have to learn and make the adventure on the Net. It was a difficult but gives me back with the sweet experience that I never for get what I learned.

Here are some tips to learn CSS by yourself :

• Try to know the objective and usefulness of CSS

• Read all the lessons even you are not clear or misunderstand but you will catch it one day.

• Download free CSS layouts and see the code. Learn from those

• Download free CSS templates and see the code. Learn from those ( You need to consider how the CSS work and find out more about tricks with CSS)

• Join CSS or any Coding forum if you need help.

Believe me! That is true!
