The other day I was thinking to myself, "Self, I wonder if there are any books on writing elegant HTML and CSS." I'm sure there are I thought, and spent some time looking on Amazon for a book. I was hoping for something that would essentially teach me the correct way to do things since I am pretty much self taught in the area of web development and would like to know what I am doing right and what I am doing wrong. Unfortunately I didn't find a book that was suitable for what I was looking for. However I did find a site that I found just as good, if not better. The website, Webplatform.org, has a lot of nice tutorials on it, with explanations why to do it that way.
So far I have only gone through the HTML and part of the CSS tutorials, but I have already found plenty of flaws in the HTML I used to write and definitely plan on changing the way I write it to become more semantic of the page I am writing. By writing html that is more semantic it makes everything clearer to other developers what the element does, and it also helps out those with disabilities that need to use things like screen readers.
