IDCC 370: Web Design I Fall 2009

Lee Underwood's article on the HTML Hierarchy will help you to understand the container model and XHTML hierarchy, both essential to working effectively with Cascading Style Sheets CSS).

Underwood notes in part two of his article: "As we look at the structure of the page we will see that each element is related to another element. This is called a parent-child-sibling relationship [tree structure]. An element that is directly above another element in the hierarchy is called the parent of the element below it. The element below the parent is called the child. When two elements are equal in the hierarchy, they are known as siblings."

The PowerPoint tutorial on "Getting Started with XHTML" reviews this nesting/container structure at the tag level. We will examine this tutorial carefully in class. If you are thoroughly comfortable with the concepts of hierarchy and containment, you will be better able to master all areas of Web design.
