This advanced HTML class is for those who wish to gain a better understanding HTML and CSS capabilities. It is available as a regularly scheduled class in our classroom with a live instructor in the same room, or as a live online class. This advanced HTML course can also be held as private workshop for your organization. This two-day advanced HTML training course combines learning new techniques with practicing them using hands-on exercises for building and maintaining websites with modern HTML5 and CSS3. This advanced HTML course covers the newer sectioning elements, as well as styling with CSS3. Additionally, some of the supporting technologies related to CSS3 such as Local Storage and Geolocation are also covered.
