    30 HTML Best Practices for Beginners

    The most difficult aspect of running Nettuts+ is accounting for so many different skill levels. If we post too many advanced tutorials, our beginner audience won’t benefit. The same holds true for the opposite. We do our best, but always feel free to pipe in if you feel you’re being neglected. This site is for you, so speak up! With that said, today’s tutorial is specifically for those who are just diving into web development. If you’ve one year of experience or less, hopefully some of the tips listed here will help you to become better, quicker!

    Without further ado, let’s review thirty best practices to observe when creating your markup.

    1: Always Close Your Tags

    Back in the day, it wasn’t uncommon to see things like this:

    <li>Some text here.
    <li>Some new text here.
    <li>You get the idea.

    Notice how the wrapping UL/OL tag was omitted. Additionally, many chose to leave off the closing LI tags as well. By today’s standards, this is simply bad practice and should be 100% avoided. Always, always close your tags. Otherwise, you’ll encounter validation and glitch issues at every turn.

    Creating a Google Map with ExpressionEngine

    Final Product

    For this example, let’s assume thaFinal Productt our company has various locations throughout the US, and we are tasked with creating a Google Map that shows all the locations and is easy to maintain. Take a look at the demo to see what we are trying to accomplish.

    Setting Up the Weblog and Custom Field Group

    First, remember that a weblog is nothing more than just a container of data. Actually, in EE 2.0, they are changing the term weblog to channel. So we are going to create a weblog called Locations and a custom field group called Locations. It’s definitely not a requirement to have them be named the same, but it just makes it easier to understand the relationship.

    Defining the Custom Field Group

    I actually like to create the field group first, so let’s do that by going to Admin > Weblog Administration > Custom Weblog Fields. Then click on the big green button that says Create a New Weblog Field Group.
