Figured It Out!

I finally was able to figure out how to get my div tags to position correctly within a wrapper tag. The thing I was doing wrong was that I needed all of my div tags to be set to float left. I also did not need to apply the clear command. Once I did that things started working correctly. It feels good to have it working correctly now!

I just messed around with the settings to personalize my blog. I added in some html to the body and sidebar. Spacey! Now I need to start thinking about what to do for my "____" Site. Lots of stuff to get done, can't linger too long on this project...

School is busy right now. Lots of homework to stay on top of and someone gave me a cold last friday. I'm finally almost over it. I have some questions about placing items freely within a wrapper div.

The Olympics have been fun to watch over the weekend. Go USA!

Merry Monday, Way go go Saints! I think I will have to get the free grand slam breakfast at Denny's on Tuesday!

This weekend I was able to create a portal page for our advanced web 1 class. I like the flash animation that I put into it. I figured out how to make the background of the flash file transparent so that you can see the html background used in dreamweaver.

I also just finished up the homework for the cufon exercise. That took some messing around with because it turns out that in the header section I did not need to name the folder containing my .js files. All I needed to do was put in the two .js file names without a /js/ before them.

It just goes to show how intense coding can be. Even with one little mistake, the entire script would not work. I was really happy when I fixed the problem. After fixing that problem I moved on to the next assignment for my javascript online class. I created a 3 state rollover button in about ten minutes, so I'm glad that I am all caught up at the moment.

I'm looking forward to learning more about dreamweaver tomorrow.

Wow! What a week!

I am super excited about the new songs I made with my friend this weekend. Cory came to visit from Milwaukee. We worked on music from 1pm til 4am and created 2 new jams that really sound great. I'm listening to them right now!

Tonight I burned the midnight oil and finished up my Sugar Records web page. I was able to get all of the list navigation on the bottom of the page to work. I even added a rollover color similar to what we did in class on the side navigation. The list navigation is key to get down because I am sure it will be something I will be using a lot on future work.

-Time to get some sleep!
