Request for a web development sub-forum

[LaRoza]

We have no clear place for web developers, except for the "Programming Talk" forum, which only attracts people doing scripting for the web. I feel that a "Web Development" forum would be benificial to everyone. This includes the newbies asking simple HTML questions in a Programming Forum, and the Web questions scattered about the "General Help" and "Absolute Beginners" forums.

This forum would be good for the (X)HTML, CSS, ECMAScript (and derivatives) and Server Side Scripting questions. Also, this forum would be the perfect place for requests to critique a site, or ask for suggestions for personal web pages.

Please consider this from a person who would love to answer web development questions, but sees such questions randomly posted with some hesitation ("Hi,l don't know if this is the right place to post this...").

Good, I have support, now we need more people supporting this. (Asking in Cafe...)

I like this idea. It seems like a lot of people around here do some form of web design, either as a hobby or for a living, and it would be great to have a specific place to discuss it where we wouldn't be off-topic (i.e., in the main support forums) or lost in the sea (in the Cafe).

Actually I think a better idea would simply be a Third Party Forum for ThinkBuntu's website:

That is only for CSS, and is a very helpful forum.

There are forums for everything, but since UF gets a lot of Web design/development related questions, I think the single account should be able to be enough for a small sub-forum for web design. It could even be a sub-forum of the Programming Talk, but I think it deserves its own place.

Perfect reason to make this forum.

(This forum would handle web site evaluation and opinions also, not just the coding.)

Excellent idea!

Web Design is no doubt an art, it could belong in several places...

Art & Design Sub-Forum is one.. :/

I suppose it belongs.
