Hyper_Ki11er wrote This is a GREAT tutorial as it has helped me learn a few new things (in the harder section)

Please update with how to make:

Scrolling Text


I hope you update with other stuff too like backgrounds etc ;)

HTML marquees (scrolling text) are essentially useless.

They still work, but Java is a much better way to go about them.

Here's all the issues I found with this tutorial.

1. You failed to even mention the DTD or show it. This is a vital aspect of a html document and one of the first things you should teach.

2. You're seemingly using XHTML (judging by the code you posted at the bottom of page one). You should be teaching HTML5 standards. What you're doing is the equivalent of teaching someone to drive in a car from the 60's.

3. You don't mention the difference between paired and un-paired tags.

4. There is no mention of unpaired tags.

5. Although you're teaching XHTML standards, you still shouldn't be teaching people to use now deprecated tags such as <u>, <center>, <font> etc.

6. Rather than teaching people to use a bunch of styling attributes, why not just link to a CSS tutorial.

7. The 'advanced' tags are vaguely and poorly explained.

8. There is no mention of good markup structure and tag nesting.
