In this podcast, I review the assignments that are due in the next couple weeks and encourage you to check out a couple resources linked from the Class Links section of the course web site. The image to the left is a screen snapshot of the W3Schools XHTML Reference, one of the most helpful resources for XHTML coding. It not only lists and explains all the elements or tags but it also gives you a chance to practice using the element in the "Try-It-Yourself Demos."The other resource explains the validation error messages in plain English. This should really help you as you work on getting your web pages to validate. The link for this page works okay from the Class Links page but for some reason, I couldn't get it to work here. Very strange. Thanks, Lisa, for the heads up about this.
I'd also like to remind you to look for chapter updates on the textbook website. Any errors that have been found after the book was printed will be listed for you. It could save you a lot of time when working on your assignments.
Listen to the Week 2 Podcast (4:40 minutes)
Or, read the transcript if you prefer.

I'm growing very fond of these podcasts - with the short music intro, and informal yet informative comments, it really makes the class feel more personal - helps me feel less isolated at this computer screen!
One note - I wasn't able to access the error message "translations" - the other links worked, but not that one - any chance you could include the actual address? (I tried to google it but couldn't find what I think you were describing.)
Thanks very much!
Lisa
