Practice Board for HTML work

The Practice Board is a great tool for working with HTML because you can check out how your HTML code looks before you actually commit to putting it out for the world to see.

It's found at: www.practiceboard.com Go ahead and open that now to see what it looks like.

When you first open it the page looks like the illustration below -- pretty simple looking and guess what? It's very simple to use as well.

Just continue scrolling down the page to the next illustration and you'll see the details on how each section works.

The following illustration should give you an idea of what you can do with Practice Board.

All you have to do is: #1 type in your HTML code; #2 click the "see HTML" button to see what your HTML code looks like; and #3 use the URL (highlighted in blue) to use as a link to show others what that code looks like.

Item #3 will become more useful as we go along but for now I want you to know about it. We'll do a little practice session with it shortly so don't worry a bit about how or why it's there.

One word of caution about Practice Board -- sometimes you can't get it to work. A lot of people use this cute little utility and it gets overloaded and will shut down for a while (I've seen it go down for as long as a couple of days).

That sounds bad but it's definitely not as horrible as it sounds. Should it go down I've got a backup plan that we'll use and everything will be fine.

Practice Board is really good for just checking your own work and it's best features are: it's free and easy to use.

My recommendation is that you bookmark "Practice Board" because it's a darn good tool for you to keep handy. -- Edited by chucksiebert at 10/04/2008 9:56 PM PDT -- Edited by chucksiebert at 10/04/2008 9:57 PM PDT -- Edited by chucksiebert at 10/04/2008 9:59 PM PDT -- Edited by ds_gifts at 10/05/2008 4:10 PM PDT -- Edited by paulajeansjewelryandcloset at 02/10/2009 3:42 PM PST
