Learnings .PSD > xHTML/CSS?

Any one know of a site that has some tutorials on how to begin coding? I've seen plenty of things on "how to code", but nothing that discusses how to slice, and pretty much for complete newbies.

I'm trying to learn how to code my own design work - basically what I'm getting at.

Any clue?

Bryan, Its too easy, thats why there probably aren't many. All you do is cut the need images out, then code them. I suggest cutting whats need out, then moving to a xHTML CSS tutorial

Thanks.

I guess it is too easy. But that's the thing. What images do I cut? How do I make backgrounds? How do I make content areas? Ahhh, the list goes on and on!

hi bryan,

till now, if i know nothing about something, i just go to google and searching something there.
for your case would be "css tutorial", "xhtml tutorial", etc etc

i'm sure you'll find that.
in my opinion, u need to learn html first before reaching xhtml or css.

k, happy searching..

Well, before you venture into XHTML/HTML and CSS, you need to understand how a website works and stuff. Once you've got that down, you can start HTML and XHTML coding. Start off with basic HTML, and then try to mix some CSS in there. XHTML and HTML are almost the same, just some syntax differences. My Tip: www.pixel2life.com

lots of tuts there...

I would recommend "cropping" the images over slicing since it gets rid of the needless images. Only crop images that you do not want content on, or if you do want content on, crop images that are special.

For instance, for a content box with a gradient. That is an image you would crop, since you can't CSS a gradient I believe. Things like content box headers are things you would like to crop.

Other than that is easy stuff. CSS is very easy, the hard point is CROSS BROWSER!

In CSS, everything you make has to be declared. Think about it that way. Think of it as making a road map, and without CSS you would be lost since those are your directions.

Hope this helped.

I'm in the proces writing a comprehensive guide for beginners over the next 2 weeks. Basically covering how to design a layout that is fairly adaptable to most sites and is W3C compatible + hack free. Starts here:
