5 Great Sites for Beginners To Learn HTML/CSS

Recently, I’m on the verge of learning basic web designing. It all started with the idea of making a landing page for myself from scratch, without using sites like About.me. I ended up discovering sites which can be very handy for beginners who’re trying to code.

1. Codecademy

This is one of the best things I’ve stumbled upon this year. Codecademy is where you learn code by actually writing it, i.e. by completing exercises which are created by experts of those field. This year, they launched a free initiative named Code Year, calling everyone to learn the basics of coding.
The site lets you track progress, achieve badges and other cool stuff. If you’re stuck at some particular exercise, you can post your doubts in the forums, there are some helpful people out there! You can grab exercises related to Javascript, JQuery and of course CSS3. They also seem to add lessons related to Python, in future. The best thing? All this is free.

2. Dochub

How about an instantly searchable documentation of all major programming languages? That’s Dochub. You can easily find documentation for various programming languages online, but it’s all scattered, and it’s not fast. Dochub solves this. Also, you can get the local version of the website from the Github page.

3. Mozilla Developer Network

Mozilla Developer Network(MDN) provides a great in-depth documentation for CSS and Javascript. It’s more like Wikipedia for web developers (you can even edit the wiki, and changes will be reviewed). Bonus is that, you can also learn about making Firefox addons and HTML5 apps, which are cross platform.

4. 30 days to learn HTML and CSS

If learning coding by reading documentation or books doesn’t work for you, then consider taking this free course. It’s a series of video tutorials by Jeffery Way, of TutsPlus. Of course, the tutorials are really basic, so if you want something more advanced, you should consider paying for Treehouse, a subscription based learning platform for web and and even iOS developers.

5. Read Blogs

Blogs related to web designing are in plenty. Starting with the TutsPlus network, till Smashing Magazine, there are so many blogs dedicated to this niche. Most of them will rank well on Google, if you search for anything related to web designing, that’s the best way to find good blogs.
I’m sure there are many more sites which fall under this category, and I’m no web designer. So, do you know any free resources for learning web designing? Write them in the comments

Google Introduces Scientific Calculator on its Search Page

Google has many search tricks up its sleeve. For instance we use it as a calculator or even a unit converter. Google has recently updated both its calculator and unit converter to make it more interactive.
All you need to do to launch it is type in “2+2” on its search bar to fire up the new scientific calculator web app.

Considering how common scientific calculators are as free apps on almost all platforms, one could wonder what exactly was Google was trying to do.
But being a web based app on the search result page itself, the calculator can be used across platforms even on mobile phones and tablets.
Also as most smart phones and even Chrome on desktops allow voice input, one could potentially use this app without the need to type in stuff.

Google’s Recently Upgraded Search Features

Google has recently introduced a lot of new and interesting search features. If you search for “1 kms = miles”, it shows up new interactive unit converter. It means users do not need to type in search queries for converting units over and over again.

Another useful search feature is “google.com/movies”. It will show up a list of movies playing in theaters from around your city.

How to Customize (Rename, Remove or Hide) Command Bar Buttons in Windows 7 Explorer?

 SUMMARY: After following this tutorial, you'll be able to customize existing default buttons present in Command Bar (aka Folder Band or Toolbar) in Windows 7 Explorer. This tutorial will help you in removing unwanted buttons and renaming desired button text in Command Bar.

 

We all know that Microsoft replaced the standard toolbar present in Windows XP and earlier OS Explorer with new Command Bar in Windows Vista and Windows 7. Windows XP toolbar was highly customizable compared to Windows 7 Command Bar.
On the other hand Microsoft didn't provide any option to customize Command Bar present in Windows 7 Explorer. You can't add new buttons and can't remove default buttons from Command Bar.

The above tutorial helps you in adding new buttons to Command Bar such as cut, copy, paste, delete, rename, undo, redo, etc.

 Actually there are some default buttons which are always shown in Windows 7 Explorer's Command Bar such as "Include in library", "Share with", Burn, "New folder", etc as shown in following image:






Many Windows users might not need a few of these exiting buttons in Command Bar but unfortunately they can't remove them from Command Bar because Microsoft doesn't provide any option to delete existing buttons from Command Bar.
Again I opened Registry Editor and started looking into various keys to find a way to remove existing buttons from Command Bar and after spending some time, finally I found a way.
So today in this tutorial, we'll tell you how to rename and remove existing default buttons from Command Bar in Windows 7 Explorer. So without wasting time, lets start the tutorial:
1. To customize existing buttons in Command Bar, you'll need to open Registry Editor. Type regedit in RUN or Start Menu search box and press Enter.
2. Now go to following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell

That's the key which contains all buttons information which are shown in Command Bar.
3. To customize a button, first look for its key under "shell" key. The associated key name would be same as the button name but it would not contain spaces and would contain "Windows." prefix. For example, if you want to rename or remove "Include in library" button, its associated key is "Windows.includeinlibrary" under "shell" key. So its easy to find the associated key for your desired Command Bar button.

5. Once you take ownership of the key, select it and look in the right-side pane. You'll see various String and other values.
We just need to modify following 2 String values:

• CanonicalName
• MUIVerb

6. If you want to remove or hide a button from Command Bar, double-click on "CanonicalName" string and remove everything from its "Value data" field i.e. make it empty.


It'll immediately remove the button from Command Bar.








7. If you want to rename a button present in Command Bar, double-click on "MUIVerb" string and set the value of "Value data" field to your desired label. You can set its value to anything you want to show.





Following is a screenshot showing almost all Command Bar buttons renamed:






As you can see in the above screenshot, we can use any character in button name.
NOTE: Make sure to note down the default values before replacing or removing them, so that you can restore the values later if you want. You can also take a backup of the key before modifying it by right-click on it and select "Export" option. It'll save the Registry key information in a .REG file.
8. That's it. Have fun in tweaking and customizing Command Bar of Windows 7 Explorer.
