[Novalug] HTML Primer for old html-ers??

[Igor Birman]

1. Print a copy of the CSS reference and pin it up on your wall:

http://www.ilovejackdaniels.com/cheat-sheets/css-cheat-sheet/

Bookmark this CSS reference site:
 http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_reference.asp

2. Write your HTML with only content, no fonts, colors, or anything like that.  Don't use tables, use lists and DIVs instead, give everything a meaningful class name (i.e. not class="10pthelvetica", but class="bodytext"...

3. $$ Profit!

So when I write HTML I remember what I did 10 years (or maybe more) ago
and pretty much use the same tages.

Is there a primer anyone knows of that gives the basics of the new tags
and how to use them? I guess CSS is part of the learning now (or I
should say how the two are married).

I look at the stuff and can figure it out, but I didn't know if there
was a good reference I can use to 'update my knowledge'
