[Code Issues]

A couple of things that help me out.

 

CTRL-S is your friend.  Quickly saves the page you are editing.

Sublime also has a plugin called "View In Browser."  A right click on the document or hot-key combo saves your file and opens it in a browser of your choice.

You probably know this, but I will mention this as well.  In the tab where the document name is, there is either a little circle or x to the right of the name.  A quick glance tells you the status.  x=saved, circle=there are unsaved edits on the page.

These save a bit of time as well not having to go to the mouse so much.

It seems like every time I add additional code to the original web page, the additions don't appear.  Please help!!!

Are you reopening the browser each time or refreshing (F5) the page after you make changes?

[Problems with HTML links on page.]

Stef:

Curious why it needs to http://.  I know I have done it that way in the past and it worked fine.

Thoughts?

[Problems with HTML links on page.]

A couple of questions:

 

1) is "my-friends" an html file?  Does it have an extension (.txt .html, etc)?  If so, it must have that extension in the link.  I am running under the assumption that is is another page in your site and is called "my-friends.html".Make sure it has an html extension.  The names must match (file name and the name in your link)

<p>Meet<a href="my-friends.html"> my friends.</a></p>

2) If this is a file, it must be in the same directory as your index.html (or whatever you call you home page).  If not, you need to give a path to the file.  It is customary to have the html files of a site in the root directory and other things in sub directories.

<p>Meet<a href="directory/my-friends.html"> my friends.</a></p>

 

If I am barking up the wrong tree, clarify what you mean by not loading correctly.  Add a screen shot if you can.

[What's the best text editor for building websites?]

I run CentOS Linux.  Of editors available to both CentOS and MAC, I have used VIM, Brackets, Atom, and Sublime Text.

I have used others that are not ported to MAC.  Of these, I always come back to Sublime Text.

Best Advice?  Try several, you will find one that stands out among the others.

Thank you.  Excellent sounding advice.

[Studioweb New Curriculum For 2017]

Just passed the halfway mark in the CSS3 course.  This has truly been one of the better taught online courses I have taken.  A lot is review as I have taken other Web Developer and boot camp style courses.  Yours is great ( I am speaking of the "Interactive Web Developers Course".  It is that inter activeness that helps a great deal. 

 

Although not a reason for taking the course, is certification given at the completion?  There was not any mention of it when I signed up, at least not that I remember.

So, have you come to any more concrete conclusions on this issue since your post.  As someone wanting to transition to web development, your discoveries would be helpful.

[Well...]

Just thought I would log into the forum, and WOW.  What a great looking new site greeted me.  Great job, Stef.  Looks fantastic.

[Forum Topic-Scope Will Expand.]

Sound fantastic.  Looking forward to see this forum progress
