Building Website with Joomla!
Familiarity with HTML, CSS, and editing of images on a computer will be required to create your
own templates for your website.
A basic understanding of the PHP programming language is necessary to be able to create
components, modules, and mambots.
Conventions
In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of
information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.
There are three styles for code. Code words in text are shown as follows: "We can include other
contexts through the use of the
include
directive."
A block of code will be set as follows:
<tr>
<!-- Area 4 -->
<td width="197" height="233" bgcolor="#F5EE28"> </td>
<!-- Area 5 -->
<td width="389" height="233"> </td>
<!-- Area 6 -->
<td width="178" height="233" bgcolor="#FFFF33"> </td>
</tr>
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or
items will be made bold:
<tr>
<!-- Area 4 -->
<td width="197" height="233" bgcolor="#F5EE28"> </td>
<!-- Area 5 -->
<td width="389" height="233"> </td>
<!-- Area 6 -->
<td width="178" height="233" bgcolor="#FFFF33"> </td>
</tr>
New terms and important words are introduced in a bold-type font. Words that you see on the
screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in our text like this: "clicking the
Next
button moves you to the next screen".
Warnings or important notes appear in a box like this.
