			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you still use flash and  images for the art font in your web? if so you should know the magic of  <a href="http://code.google.com/webfonts" title="Google Font Directory">Google Font Directory</a> and <a href="http://code.google.com/apis/webfonts/" title="Google Font API">Google Font API</a> , you can use all the font in the Google Font Directory , also it&#8217;s very easy to install.<span id="more-415"></span></p>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Tangerine|Droid+Serif:bold">
<h3>What&#8217;s  google font api</h3>
<p>
 Google Font API helps you add  Google Font Directory web fonts to any web page.It provide  high quality open source fonts,works in most browsers,also as other gooles services it&#8217;s very  easy to use.
</p>
<h3>Add google font api to your site</h3>
<p>
First,you need add the google font css,for instance:</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="xml" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;link</span> <span style="color: #000066;">rel</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;stylesheet&quot;</span> <span style="color: #000066;">type</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;text/css&quot;</span> <span style="color: #000066;">href</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Tangerine&quot;</span><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span></pre></div></div>

<p>this import the Tangerine font style,but if you want to use multiple fonts,for example you need add 1 more font  Inconsolata,the  css link should be</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="xml" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;link</span> <span style="color: #000066;">rel</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;stylesheet&quot;</span> <span style="color: #000066;">type</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;text/css&quot;</span> <span style="color: #000066;">href</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Tangerine|Inconsolata&quot;</span><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span></pre></div></div>

<p>then you need apply the css style to the element you want</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="css" style="font-family:monospace;">CSS selector <span style="color: #00AA00;">&#123;</span>
  <span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">font-family</span><span style="color: #00AA00;">:</span> <span style="color: #ff0000;">'Font Name'</span><span style="color: #00AA00;">,</span> <span style="color: #993333;">serif</span><span style="color: #00AA00;">;</span>
<span style="color: #00AA00;">&#125;</span></pre></div></div>

<p>or use a inline css</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="xml" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;div</span> <span style="color: #000066;">style</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;font-family: 'Font Name', serif;&quot;</span><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span>Your text<span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;/div<span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span></span></pre></div></div>

<p>let&#8217;s see a live sample</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="xml" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;link</span> <span style="color: #000066;">rel</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;stylesheet&quot;</span> <span style="color: #000066;">type</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;text/css&quot;</span> <span style="color: #000066;">href</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Tangerine&quot;</span><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span>
/* add this in the header*/
&nbsp;
 <span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;h1</span> <span style="color: #000066;">style</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;font-family: 'Tangerine', serif;font-size:36px&quot;</span><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span>Making the Web font  looks nice!<span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;/h1<span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span></span>
/* add this in the body */</pre></div></div>

<p>result is:</p>
<h1 style="font-family: 'Tangerine', serif;font-size:36px">Making the Web font  looks nice!</h1>
<p>this sentence is  ordinary text, so it will not effect the other style (like color,text-shadow&#8230;.) you add for this sentence .
</p>
<h3>Complex sample</h3>
<p>
I think you may love it now,let&#8217;s see what&#8217;s more the  google font api can do?The google font api provide more options for the font style, like italic or bold,here is the rules<br />
&quot;<br />
To request multiple font families, separate the names with a pipe character (|).<br />
the regular version of the requested fonts by default. To request other styles or weights, append a colon (:) to the name of the font, followed by a list of styles or weights separated by commas (,)<br />
 &quot;<br />
also   for weights, you can alternatively specify a numerical weight; for example</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="xml" style="font-family:monospace;">http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Cantarell:italic|Droid+Serif:bold|Tangerine:700</pre></div></div>

<p>this means load Cantarell italic font ,Droid+Serif blod font and  Tangerine font with font weight 700.<br />
the live sample</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="xml" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;h3</span> <span style="color: #000066;">style</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot; font-size:30px &quot;</span><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span>Enjoyed it,Happy reading!<span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;/h3<span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span></span>
<span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;h3</span> <span style="color: #000066;">style</span>=<span style="color: #ff0000;">&quot;font-family:'Droid Serif';font-size:30px &quot;</span><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span>Enjoyed it,Happy reading!<span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;/h3<span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&gt;</span></span></span></pre></div></div>

<h3 style=" font-size:30px ">Enjoyed it,Happy reading!</h3>
<h3 style="font-family:'Droid Serif';font-size:30px ">Enjoyed it,Happy reading!</h3></p>

<p>You can see it&#8217;s no difference with your normal menu.So the only thing you need to do is adjust your css file, add extra style to the slide menu .</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="css" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #808080; font-style: italic;">/** style need add for slide menu **/</span>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When coding cross-browsers css xhtml layout,sometimes we may meet some pain css problem and cost much time . Fortunately, there are some css hacks for us :<br />
<span id="more-122"></span></p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="css" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #808080; font-style: italic;">/*---google chrome hack---*/</span>
&nbsp;
 <span style="color: #a1a100;">@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0) {</span>
   <span style="color: #808080; font-style: italic;">/*----css codes for google chrome------
   #sboxes li h2 
    {
      font-size:17px;
     padding-left:7px; 
      }
*/</span>
<span style="color: #00AA00;">&#125;</span></pre></div></div>

<p>sometimes , only ie6 have layout problems ,so i aways use quick ie6 hack,add a &quote;_&quote;to the css,  for instance: <br/></p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="css" style="font-family:monospace;">  <span style="color: #cc00cc;">#content</span>
  <span style="color: #00AA00;">&#123;</span>
      <span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">padding</span><span style="color: #00AA00;">:</span><span style="color: #933;">10px</span><span style="color: #00AA00;">;</span>
    _padding<span style="color: #00AA00;">:</span><span style="color: #933;">5px</span><span style="color: #00AA00;">;</span><span style="color: #808080; font-style: italic;">/* --- for ie6 css ----  */</span>
  <span style="color: #00AA00;">&#125;</span></pre></div></div>

<p>those above 2 hack is most used.There are some other css hacks:</p>
<p>
css hack for ie7 :</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="css" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #00AA00;">*+</span>html selector <span style="color: #00AA00;">&#123;</span> property<span style="color: #00AA00;">:</span> value<span style="color: #00AA00;">;</span> <span style="color: #00AA00;">&#125;</span></pre></div></div>

<p>this hack can pass w3c validation!
</p>
<p>
css for ie6,ie7,ie8</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="css" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #00AA00;">*</span> html selector <span style="color: #00AA00;">&#123;</span> property<span style="color: #00AA00;">:</span> value<span style="color: #00AA00;">;</span> <span style="color: #00AA00;">&#125;</span></pre></div></div>

<p>this hack also  can pass w3c validation!
</p>
<p>
css hack for only ie8</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="css" style="font-family:monospace;">property<span style="color: #00AA00;">:</span> value\<span style="color: #cc66cc;">0</span></pre></div></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Introduce</h3>
<p>
Now,let&#8217;s make all together (w3c valid 2 columns xhtml ,ul li css none-js SEO friendly sub-menu),we get a full wordpress home page html template&#8211;Click <a target='_blank' href='http://www.brightyoursite.com/demo/2-columns-layout/wordpress-html-template.html' title='wordpress html template'>HERE</a> to view.It looks nice  simple &amp; usefull, right ？let&#8217;s start to convert it to wordpress theme.
</p>
<p><span id="more-9"></span></p>
<p>
First,We should know some basic wordpress theme Knowledge:<br />
<strong>What&#8217;s a basic theme include ?</strong><br/></p>
<ul>
<li>css style (required,style.css,style the page also put your personal info. like theme name , author &#8230;)</li>
<li>index.php (required,WordPress Theme start with this file if without the home.php)</li>
<li>a screenshot (optionally,screenshot.png)</li>
<li>single.php (optionally,this file to generate the  structure for a single post,if no such a file the wordpress will use index.php to generate the structure )</li>
<li>page.php (optionally,this file to generate the  structure for a single page,similar as single.php)</li>
</ul>
<p>so we know a very minimum wordpress theme should include (index.php,style.css) .but usually in order to keep the site in a more good structure and can maxmum reuse , flexible .The page&#8217;s structure is  separated to<br />
several parts:</p>
<ul>
<li> <tt>header.php</tt>
</li>
<li> <tt>sidebar.php</tt>
</li>
<li> <tt>footer.php</tt>
</li>
<li> <tt>comments.php</tt>
</li>
<li> <tt>comments-popup.php</tt>
</li>
</ul>
<p>reference those in the template php file is very easy.For instance,header.php :</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="php" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;?php</span> get_headerer<span style="color: #009900;">&#40;</span><span style="color: #009900;">&#41;</span><span style="color: #339933;">;</span> <span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">?&gt;</span></pre></div></div>

<p>the comment, use the  comments_template()  template tag.<br />
the sidebar, use the get_sidebar() template tag.<br />
the footer, use the get_footer() template tag.<br/><br />
Also can use</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="php" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #b1b100;">include</span><span style="color: #009900;">&#40;</span>TEMPLATEPATH <span style="color: #339933;">.</span> <span style="color: #0000ff;">'/script.php'</span><span style="color: #009900;">&#41;</span><span style="color: #339933;">;</span></pre></div></div>

<p>to reference any php file in the  template folder.
</p>
<h3>Start coding wordpress theme now</h3>
<p>
First ,we need declare the theme in style.css .For instance</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="css" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #808080; font-style: italic;">/*
Theme Name: red theme
Theme URI: http://www.brightyoursite.com/blog/2010/01/11/your-first-normal-wordpress-template/
Description:Your first wordpress theme
Version: 1.6
Author: alex 
Author URI:  http://www.brightyoursite.com
Tags: red, fixed width, two columns, widgets 
*/</span></pre></div></div>

<p>you can see the define theme name , url version aurhor &#8230;. there .<br />
Next , do the  page segmentation  and create the header.php , footer.php , sidebar.php and index.php .<br />
to make it easier we can copy the those files from the wordpress default theme . we just need copy our html codes and do some adjustment. for instace change the menu to wordpress page list ：</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="php" style="font-family:monospace;">  &lt;div id=&quot;menus&quot;&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
 <span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;?php</span> wp_list_pages<span style="color: #009900;">&#40;</span><span style="color: #0000ff;">&quot;title_li=&amp;depth=2&quot;</span><span style="color: #009900;">&#41;</span><span style="color: #339933;">;</span> <span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">?&gt;</span>
 &lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;</pre></div></div>

<p>the main posts loop:</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="xml" style="font-family:monospace;"><span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;?php</span> if <span style="color: #66cc66;">&#40;</span>have_posts<span style="color: #66cc66;">&#40;</span><span style="color: #66cc66;">&#41;</span><span style="color: #66cc66;">&#41;</span> : <span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">?&gt;</span></span> 
  <span style="color: #009900;"><span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">&lt;?php</span> while <span style="color: #66cc66;">&#40;</span>have_posts<span style="color: #66cc66;">&#40;</span><span style="color: #66cc66;">&#41;</span><span style="color: #66cc66;">&#41;</span> : the_post<span style="color: #66cc66;">&#40;</span><span style="color: #66cc66;">&#41;</span>; <span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;">?&gt;</span></span>

<strong>IE6 below Issue</strong><br />
If you have IE6 , You may noticed that this menu rollover image function not work in IE6 and below .<br />
What&#8217;s the solution:<br />
We need use Third-party approach : The  <a target='_blank' title='csshover3.htc'  href='http://www.brightyoursite.com/demo/2-columns-layout/csshover3.htc'>csshover3.htc</a> . Add it to the same  folder of css , then add this line  &#8220;behavior: url(&#8220;csshover3.htc&#8221;);&#8221;  to #navs ul li .So it should like this :<br/></p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="css" style="font-family:monospace;"> <span style="color: #cc00cc;">#navs</span> ul li
 <span style="color: #00AA00;">&#123;</span>

<a target='_blank' href='http://www.brightyoursite.com/demo/2-columns-layout/frame1.html'> click here </a> to check the result . good , like magic , it looks better now . if you look at the css carefully,you may find a the wrapper &#8220;width:861px;&#8221; its not 875 px.thats beacuse add  7px  padding left and right to wrapper , it&#8217;s 7px + 7px + 861px = 875px .
