Description

This month the Web Design Special Interest Group will discuss how to convert an existing page from a table based layout to CSS on Tuesday, April 27. For many years, the only way to create compelling web pages was to use tables and spacer images. The smallest change could become a major task in column and row manipulation resulting in multiple nested tables. Pages got more and more bloated with maintenance taking more and more time. The introduction of CSS is reversing this trend. It is now possible to do almost anything tables did in the fraction of the page weight with changes a snap. But updating an existing site can be a daunting task. Where do you start? Join us as we use a step-by-step approach to take a table based design and simplify markup using proper html structure and CSS. Find out how to incorporate CSS into your site and take advantage of the design flexibility and cool visual effect CSS offers.
