hi friends, I have a question. Is W3Schools harming the community with inaccurate information ? have you visited w3fools dot com ? Please tell me your reviews about w3schools. Thank you , Pratham
w3fools is a great name for the site Are they seriously suggesting that anyone would consider them employable by learning from w3schools alone? If so then they are the ones who are unemployable. If you are years behind your colleagues its not because you rely on w3schools but because you don't experiment, test and explore in your own time. I hope it doesn't become a wiki or people like them might make it as reliable as wikipedia. As it stands w3schools is a useful resource for the absolute beginner but it is not a professional resource. Couldn't agree more. They got that one right. From the examples they gave it is clear that w3schools public face needs a damn good going over and to be brought up to date. Do people even create .htm/.html files anymore? However to claim that it can harm careers is pure mischief.
W3Schools is great place to get started.... but I agree that its not complete solution. You need some other sources (books, offline course) to enhance your knowledge.
Thank you very much Although that is a quality one can expect from a guy named ApocalypseXL that sports the Grimm Reaper for an avatar . I'm just joking , I'm not actively recommending that to newbs i just keep the real sources undisclosed . In my opinion if you can't even use Google to an advanced level the you have no place in such a high volatility and such a highly competitive industry .
W3Schools is a great reference site to jog your memory, but it's not a place to learn anything. As w3fools.com says, you should learn from and recommend more reputable sites.
You'll love the quality of the advice here then: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2260577
W3schools.com is one of the best program learning sites ever ! I'm not sure about the mistakes thrown on w3schools by w3fools ? Anyone can clarify this ?
i started learning html in w3schools, so it is a great site if you to go if you want to learn the basics. learning the advanced topics in html/css/javascript/php is through experience..
What's shocking to me is that people continue to post the same horrid answer again and again , somehow i can't wrap my mind around that . Off topic : Who's the girl in your avatar ?
I don't see whats the problem with w3schools.com Its just another site, sure there maybe some inaccurate information but its still a valuable site filled with useful organized info. The person who created w3fools is either a) have a lot of time to waste b) envious of w3schools Read the disclaimer While that person is on to it, feel free to make wikifool, foolbook and many other sites where there are non, I repeat non are fool proof.
Ever since I knew about HTML I always visit w3school for some information that I will need how make a website good and it doesn't give me wrong information. This website is very relevant for me and I would also suggest this site for new students who are learning HTML.
