Html vs. xhtml

If you are familiar with HTML, you will be glad to know that the majority of what you know about HTML is still relevant in XHTML. The main differrences are that XHTML forces webpage authors to be more consistent and to write more legible code. There are a few syntax and grammar differences and a few HTML tags have been dropped and, really, that's about it. If you know HTML then you'll be surprised at how easy it is to switch to XHTML, and the new XHTML rules will force you to become a better programmer too!

Expectations

In web design i expect to learn things about technology, more specifically the Internet and websites. I expect to learn how to design my own website. I expect to learn how to personalize it tho show what i want it to show, and contain things that i would want to see on my own personal site such as music and pictures. I expect to learn a lot of stuff from this class about technology and computers. With the help of my peers we can make shore that ever body learns all the criteria that would be taught in this classroom. Everybody has straights and weaknesses and all fellow students we can help each other out to make sure those strengths and weaknesses even out. We also have Ms. Ramirez to help us out and make sure we grasp everything. I also expect and hope to get a good grade in this class. This is a technology class and i want to attend a technology college in the future so a good grade in this class would be really useful.
