About the Event

Our instructor will conduct two hands-on workshops focused on formatting content on web pages. The morning workshop will explore HTML techniques for presenting text and images in a table format and the afternoon workshop will provide an overview of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).

The workshops will focus on HTML and CSS coding (rather than using HTML editors) and participants will have sample documents to take with them.

In the HTML session, participants will learn how to:

Create and work with tables for page layouts (adding links, images, width and height measurements and nested tables)

In the CSS session, participants will:

Become familiar with the basics of CSS including embedded styles, inline styles, and external style sheets
Learn how to work with fonts and text control in CSS

Target audience

If you are interested in learning strategies for formatting content on the web and are familiar with the basics of HTML, this seminar is for you.

Fees and Registration

Admission Fees

The fee covers both the morning and afternoon sessions and cannot be reduced or split if a participant is interested in attending only one of the sessions.

$50	STC members with advance registration
$45	Confirmed present event volunteers with advance registration
$45	Students with advance registration
$75	Nonmembers with advance registration

Admission fees help to offset the costs of our programs. Fees may vary from program to program because of the costs of food and beverages, room rental, and other services. Our attendees pay slightly different fees depending on whether they are members, nonmembers, students, chapter volunteers, or walk-ins. We also sometimes offer a program-only option for programs that are not held in restaurants.

We cannot offer free admission to this event, as we do at other times in exchange for volunteers' help before or during the event.
