What this book does

Section 1: A crash course in HTML5 and CSS3

This book starts with an 8-chapter course that teaches you how to use HTML5 and CSS3 to build websites. This course works for beginners as well as experienced web designers, and the last chapter teaches you how to use Responsive Web Design so your pages will look good and work right on any screen, from phone to tablet to desktop.
When you complete this course, you will be able to develop web pages at a professional level. Then, you can go on to any other section or chapter in this book to learn new skills whenever you need them.

Section 2: Refine your web pages with the features that users expect in websites today

This section presents all of the other HTML5 and CSS3 skills that you may need. That includes:

More on working with images, including thumbnails, rollovers, and image maps
When and how to use tables
How to work with forms and the HTML5 validation features
How to add audio and video to your pages (HTML5 lets you use the players that are built into all modern browsers)
How to use embedded fonts so you can be sure all browsers that access your website will have them
How to format your web pages for printing
How to use the CSS3 features for transitions, animation, transforms, and filters

Section 3: Use JavaScript and jQuery for special features

This section shows you how to add JavaScript and jQuery features to your web pages...without knowing how to code JavaScript and jQuery. Specifically, you’ll learn how to use

JavaScript and jQuery to enhance your web pages with features like image rollovers and image swaps jQuery UI and jQuery plugins to enhance your web pages with features like accordions, tabs, carousels, and slide shows jQuery Mobile to develop a separate website for mobile devices when it’s impractical to add Responsive Web Design to an established site

After you finish this section, you’ll probably want to learn how to write your own JavaScript and jQuery routines so you can customize the features of your website. But when you’re ready for that, you can get our JavaScript and jQuery book.

Section 4: Design and deployment

Once you have a good grasp of how to develop web pages, you can understand today’s best practices for designing a site, as shown in chapter 18. Then, chapter 19 shows you not only how test and deploy your website, but also how to get the site indexed on the major search engines and directories.
