1 Web Development And Design Foundations With HTML5 (6th Edition) PDF

2 Using Hands-On Practice exercises and Website Case Studies to motivate readers, Web Development and Design Foundations with HTML5 includes all the necessary lessons to guide students in developing highly effective websites. This textbook has an innovative approach that prepares students to design web pages that work today, in addition to being ready to take advantage of the new HTML5 coding techniques of the future. XHTML syntax is introduced, but the focus is on HTML5 syntax. New HTML5 elements are presented, with an emphasis on coding web pages that work in both current and future browsers. A well-rounded balance of hard skills (HTML5, XHTML, CSS, and an introduction to JavaScript) and soft skills (web design, e-commerce overview, website promotion strategies) presents everything beginning web developers need to know to build and promote successful websites. Topics include: Internet concepts Creating web pages with HTML5 Configuring text, color, and page layout with CSS HTML5 Video and Audio HTML5 Form Controls New CSS3 properties Web design best practicescss media queriesdesigning web pages for mobile devices Web accessibility standards The web development process Choosing a domain name Selecting a web host Website promotion and search engine optimization E-commerce Overview JavaScript Introduction Paperback: 672 pages Publisher: Pearson; 6 edition (February 27, 2012) Language: English ISBN-10: ISBN-13: Product Dimensions: 8.4 x 1 x 10.7 inches Shipping Weight: 2.7 pounds Average Customer Review: 4.2 out of 5 starsâ Â See all reviewsâ (89 customer reviews) Best Sellers Rank: #259,397 in Books (See Top 100 in Books) #11 inâ Books > Computers & Technology > Programming > Languages & Tools > XHTML #507 inâ Books > Computers & Technology > Web Development & Design > Web Design #1172 inâ Books > Textbooks > Computer Science > Programming Languages Note that this review is for the paperback version, not the Kindle edition.felke-morris does an outstanding job of covering the foundations of HTML5 and CSS3 in this 6th edition. Each chapter

3 has Hands-on-Practice exercises with step by step instructions and clear visuals that capture the result of the code. Solutions to the practice exercises are provided in the student data files so that learners can compare their work to the correct solution. There are also end of chapter exercises and four different case studies that build across all chapters, with solutions available only to instructors. There are complete instructor materials available on the publisher's website including test banks, end-of-chapter and case study solution files, PowerPoints, example syllabus, and instructor manuals. In addition, there is a superb, open-access companion website developed by the author with tons of supplementary resources, flash cards, and chapter updates for any errata discovered after publication (webdevfoundations.net).i've adopted this book for a college level introductory web development course after reviewing at least a dozen textbooks from academic publishers. The book is appropriate for beginners as well as those who are already familiar with web development and want to learn more about CSS layout and the differences between XHTML and HTML5/CSS3. What sets this book apart from the rest of the pack is that it covers the material based on current specifications and trends, separating HTML structure from CSS layout and styles. The vast majority of books published by academic publishers are just using small incremental updates to previous editions, still use HTML tables for layout and menus, teach deprecated elements, and contain downright ugly or broken CSS for chapter exercises. Believe me, I know - I've spent countless hours reviewing them all very thoroughly and most are a waste of time and effort.web Development & Design Foundations, 6th edition is the ONLY textbook out there with a full set of instructor materials that covers HTML & CSS as it should be covered. Chapter 1 introduces how the web and the Internet work. Chapter 2 gets right into HTML basics, lists, and links. Chapter 3 jumps right into CSS for style and formatting; chapter 4 covers images and introduces the new CSS3 visual effects; and chapters 6 & 7 delve deeply into CSS for page layout (that other textbooks barely touch on). Students learn to layout their pages the right way before tables are even introduced in chapter 8. Other topics include forms (standard and HTML5), mobile layouts, responsive design and media queries, multimedia, website planning and web project management, e-commerce, and an intro to javascript.i can't praise this book enough - it is clearly best of breed. We are currently using the book in five sections of an intro web development course designed for non-technical university students and they are succeeding. Consider it classroom tested. Thank you, Terry Felke-Morris! Great book! This book is great whether you're taking it with a class at college, or just getting it on your own for self paced learning. Hands on chapter summaries walk you through every step of learning HTML,

4 HTML5 and CSS. $100+ book printed with the quality that is barely better than a comic book. Paper is thin and easy to tear on a book that is large very large. I would have preferred for this amount that the book be hard back and printed on good quality paper. Just another academic money machine because I had to buy this book for my kid's class. This book is a scam. Considering the price paid for a new book, I did not expect what appears to be dirty shoe marks all over the book in addition to bends on the back flap.that being said the book is okay, I was also not expecting it to be the dimensions of a work book (quite a bit larger all the way around vs normal college textbook). The content seems okay if one wanted to learn basic HTML5 and CSS3 outside of taking a class. The book was great for my introductory web class. The price is a little steep though considering many of the links in the book don't work making it a little out-dated but there is a new version, it came out after the semester started though so we didn't have a choice. I feel like it could have been a bit more explanatory, but who cares, it was a textbook for a college web design class. I should have known better when the prof's website looked like some geocities blunder straight out of the 90s. I purchased this used book for a online Web Development class. It was received in good condition and it is pretty easy to follow along and learn web development at your own pace. There are lots of examples to compare your work with as well as the companion website that offers videos and tutorials to help with learning along the way. This is a good book for doing personal web page in HTML 5 and ssing CSS 3.0. It however, does not include anything on how to do commercial sites especially ones that have online inventory and ordering. Nothing at all is included, nothing!
