New tutorials coming

I have mentioned that I would be adding new tutorials to my website in the past so this may not necessarily be new news, but hey, nothing like a site update.

Most recently, version 3.6 of my website was released, a new version in the way the site is coded, making the site more consistent on the server side and easier to manage. 

Very recently after, I started to work on a new tutorial on CSS. This is the first of many planned tutorials and will hopefully be finished by May this year. As well as this, I've had emails and comments stating that my PHP tutorial is good, but since reading through it myself, I find it a bit too short and have decided to extend it far further with a new section on Advanced PHP planned.

These are all planned for the CSS tutorial:

  • Width, height, padding and margins
  • Borders, box shadows, border radius and box sizing
  • Colour, backgrounds and gradients
  • Fonts, font families, font weights and styles
  • Pseudo-CSS selectors
  • Advanced pseudo-CSS selectors
  • Adjacent sibling selector
  • Child selector
  • Descendant selector
  • General sibling selector
  • Universal selector
  • Minification and combining CSS
  • Optimising CSS
  • Cross platform and browser compatibility
  • jQuery and CSS
  • Shorthand CSS
  • CSS @ rules
  • Precedence and specificity
  • Server side generated CSS
  • Introduction to responsive web design
  • Tablet and smartphone friendly CSS
  • Printer-friendly CSS
  • Advanced responsive CSS
  • CSS content
  • CSS transitions
  • CSS transformation

Bringing it all together
