How to make website layouts?

  • I know how to code website layouts, but I do simple coding. Very simple. Sometimes I see these fansites that have really good layouts and I really wanna learn how to make things like that. For example, http://mirandakerr.com/ , http://heather-hemmens.com/ , etc. From what I've read, the coding that they do would be considered html coding. Is that true? And if so, is there a website where I can learn? Also, I have dreamweaver, does that help make coding easier?

  • Answer:

    Don't use Dreamweaver. Ever. It screws up all the code, and you'll be able to see how badly it does that. All websites use HTML and CSS. Make sure to update your CSS to CSS3. There are gradients and everything. You should often have a Cascading Style Sheet that's it's own page rather than embedded into the code of the HTML page because it gets filled up pretty fast, and the last thing you want is messy code sitting in your header. Try w3schools to understand some more about CSS. If you want to get better at design, just keep looking at new websites and understand what's in these days. Gradients are really reall big right now. On most fancy websites, people use Javascript functions (using jQuery), like carousels and image scrollers.

Idk how you do simple web coding without html because html is the most simple basis of any web coding. Yes dreamweaver does make things a lot easier usually depending on what your trying to do. Other fun things to look into to help with website coding are php and javascript both of which can add a lot of functionality to a website. When you want to get really creative people make their own templates and site designs with things like adobe photoshop and illustrator.

w3schools.com You don't need dreamweaver, but if you've already got it it might help. Or, it might make things worse... some web developers see it as more of a crutch.
