This is a good article for all web designers/developers not just beginners. I still see sites that use too many different fonts just to be cute or whatever. Another thing to add is to make sure you are using web fonts like Google fonts or Typekit, etc. that work well …

For footers or headers that have a lot of things like extra divs in them, I've added images as a background in the css code to place a static image: .footer { position: relative; background: url(../images/Main/header.png) no-repeat center center; top: 0px; left: 0px; padding: 0; margin: 0; width: 975px; height: …

Agree that you learn HTML, CSS and possibly DOM before you mess with Photoshop, etc. Also, programs like Dreamweaver and others allow you to view HTML code side-by-side with a visual preview of what the HTML is doing. For someone with a graphics background like I had, this made it …

I would imagine that it would depend on what theme the child theme is based upon. For example, if you create a child theme from say Twentythirteen then there should be no copyright. But what if it's a child theme based upon a "paid for" theme? what if you're making …

With a header graphic like this I would make the text part of the graphic so I could make it stand out with dropshadow or other affects using Photoshop or some other image editor. Otherwise, I try to make my text NOT part of the graphic for a smaller file …

I would first look at the source code. For Wordpress CMS you will see "wp" used in may areas: src='http//website.com/wp-content/themes...' I would expect that Drupal and Joomla have similar telltale signs as well.

I haven't yet used GWD but I've downloaded it awhile ago. You can always ask this question in the GWD forums like this guy did: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/gwdbeta/extra$20code/gwdbeta/qc0ErAwR_Oc/-XajIclTvGUJ

I too have created many static and WordPress and other CMS sites. Like Pritaes said, multiple changes again and again are the most frustrating. I like to let them know up front that they are allowed 3 change requests before I start charging them extra for new changes. Now this …

All too often I've seen folks bang their heads against a wall trying to figure out why their HTML or CSS code isn't working correctly. I've done it myself at times. When we find the reason, it's usually a silly typo we made somewhere in the code that's the culprit. …

I have to agree with others who are basically saying that you should never create and promote a company when you don't know the first thing about the services you are offering. Your low prices undercut the rest of us who actually DO know what we are doing. I just …

Ummmm... HTML has one more letter than CSS? (sorry had to be a smartass for this question)

Yes, image mapping has been around a long time. I've used it in the past with Dreamweaver. It's a fast and easy way to get the job done but I have also been using absolute positioned divs as well according to my needs.

Yes, sometimes you have to use "browser hacks" for older browsers

I usually add the arrow as part of my jQuery code that makes the dropdown function. Like here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13516767/jquery-toggle-dropdown-menu-with-toggle-arrow

Veedeoo has given a nice workaround that basically does the same thing as javascript includes. Good for when you can use javascript.

Another problem with forms is that they can look very different depending upon which browser you're using. I've used things Fomralizer in the past to force the same look and feel for all browsers. http://formalize.me/

How do I edit an email form reply from a customer back to the website owner so that it does NOT show empty text field areas that were left blank by the user? I know this is not possible with just regular HTML froms but I heard that maybe there …
