Welcome, I am your host Carl Codling. Webdesignpro is both the home of my freelance web design business and a forum from where myself and other developers publish articles and tutorials on web design. Below is some information on the history of my involvement in web design and programming
I have been designing and programming web applications for over 7 years, initially for my own purposes, but in more recent years - as my flare for using computer languages has evolved - on a professional basis and to a very high standard..
My main areas of expertise are :
- HTML and XHTML
- XML, RSS
- PHP Including security techniques for secure web applications
- MySQL Databases
- Javascript and W3C DOM
- CSS
- AJAX
- Fireworks
- Photoshop
- Accessibility techniques
- W3C code validation
I also have experience in the following:
- Flash
- Search Engine Optimisation
- Web Services API Integration
It is my objective to always keep my level of skill set to the current standards and to stay ahead of the crowd.
It is my objective to stay ahead of the crowd; by always keeping my level of skill set to the current standards, and by learning and incorporating new developments in web design.
Even though I achieved a distinction for the Level III Diploma in Web Design by ACITP (Association of Certified IT Professionals) I am self taught and I am constantly - some might say obsessively - building upon my knowledge.
(view certificate 1),(view certificate 2).
