Overview
Take your web design skills to the next level with XML, and learn how to use the content behind the site to drive the information, navigation, and design of a full-featured website. In this 10-session video course, you’ll build a professional website from the ground up by focusing on back-end structure and information to create brilliant front-end design and functionality. You’ll learn how to architect your content once for use in multiple formats and venues: the Web, desktop, mobile devices, and PDF.
Presented by creativeLIVE in partnership with O’Reilly, each session offers easy-to-follow, hands-on lessons. Learn how to build structured content bases that control HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Discover how to update your information easily, and then create your site and other publications with the push of a button. This video package is ideal for web professionals of all stripes who want to create their own ideas, rather than just implement the ideas of others.

- Competitive analysis techniques to slice up the competition and create a content architecture and site design that puts you on top

- Information structure to define and master the content and navigation on your site

- XML Transform coding to access your content base and automatically create any site design you can imagine
- A new way to look at websites, mobile delivery, PDF and any other output that will put you ahead of other designers

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.Addison B.
