This evening I sat down to write part of my learning reflection (so far) and found that I feel quite happy with the things I have learnt over the semester and that the things that I haven't learnt as well as I may have hoped have not really held me back from doing the final project and feeling a certain amount of satisfaction with the skills and knowledge I have gained. I feel that I don't want to pursue front end code as a job and this is a really good realisation for me. My strengths don't lie in this direction however having a good understanding on the backgounds of all of these technologies will stand me in good stead in the future.
I also spent a bit more time playing around in CSS - the saga continues! I have made some good inroads into getting the bits and pieces to sit where I would like them to but the job is by no means complete. I found some help at the following sites for some very simple things such as liquid layouts: http://www.bigbaer.com/css_tutorials/two-column-header-footer.html
And for my navigation menu which I was finding a bit difficult to place I found some really good options for a vertical menu at Exploding Boy: http://www.exploding-boy.com/images/EBmenus/menus.html These helped me to sort out my code so that I can continue on with the project without feeling too frustrated. I feel as though I am getting a better handle on CSS all the time now!
