About Scott
Kenneth Scott Huntley, AACS (PROV) is a Web Consultant living in the South Western suburbs of Sydney, Australia.
Currently a mature student of Bachelor of Internet Science & Technology at the University of Wollongong and a part-time Web Design teacher at Miller College of TAFE, Scott was born and raised in Nova Scotia, Canada.
Scott is an Associate of the Australian Computer Society, a Member of the Australian Web Industry Association, a Member of the Golden Key International Honour Society, and the winner of a 2005 TAFE State Medal in Web Development.
Scott currently hates this theme and will work on a new one when he gets a chance.
This page was neglected for about 6 months. Scott hated the theme he had created and basically, like many bloggers, ran out of things to say. So what brought him back? Recently while teaching Web Design at Miller TAFE, his ingenious students discovered his page and started finding it's flaws. Apparently Scott has a "do I what I say, not what I do" approach. Well, who doesn't? Although Scott strives to teach the best practices, reality means sometimes we'll accept less than best - for now!

An interesting suggestion. I’ll have to think how and why I’d want to apply it, but definately worth a look.

This surprised me to some extent. I suppose that’s indicitave of how naive I am about HTML5. I know it is something I should research more, but I still fail to see why we are going away from the XHTML families.

Attention TAFE Students, again!
Ahem…
If you were at Friday’s class, you might recall a large portion of the class (i.e. all of it) was devoted to FTP. We FTPed using Filezilla, using the built in FTP Client in Frontpage (and I showed you one in Dreamweaver too), and I showed you FTP from the Command prompt.
And then I handed out some activities, and I especially wanted everyone to try uploading to my webserver. And all promised to practice FTPing, and all practiced to try uploading a page or pages to my webserver so that they may show off their FTP & HTML & CSS skills.
It’s Monday, and no one has uploaded anything.
Come on guys! Upload something! This isn’t hard, but you need to practice!
