Reading Notes
HTML
Chapter 5: “Images”
- The
<img>element is used to add images to a web page - You must always specify an src attribute to indicate the source of an image and an alt attribute to describe the content of an image
- You should save images at the size you will be using the; illustrations or logos that use flat colors are better saved as GIFs.
Chapter 11: “Color”
- Color not only brings your site to life, but also helps convey the mood and evokes reactions.
- There are three ways to specify colors in CSS: RGB values, hex codes, and color names.
- Color pickers can help you to find the color you want.
- It is important to ensure that there is enough contrast between any test and the background color (otherwise people will not be abm on the web page and in the appropriate format.
- Photographs are best saved as JPEGsle to read your content)
Chapter 12: “Text”
- There are properties to control the choice of font, size, weight, style, and spacing.
- There’s a limited choice of fonts that you can assure most people will have installed.
- If you want to use a wider range of typerfaces there are several options, but you need to have the right license to use them.
- You can control the space between lines of text, individual letters, and words, Text can also be aligned to the left, right, center, of justified. It can also be indented,
- You can use pseudo-classes to change the style of an element when a user hovers over or clicks on text, or when they have visited a link.
