Dynamic HTML Training Course

This course provides delegates with more advanced HTML skills, allowing the creation of dynamic content web pages. Text editors are used to create the HTML - this is not a course in web publishing tools. The course is mainly practical with plenty of exercises to provide hands on experience. A web server is available to allow delegates to publish their web page.

It is expected that delegates have a knowledge of HTML to the standard achieved by the PTR HTML Web Authoring course.
