DotNetNuke 6 underwent a major shift in both philosophy and implementation for the user interface of the built-in controls and modules. In this session you will learn about what has changed in the user interface (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript), and how you can take advantage of it in your modules, skins, and implementations. Learn about the new resources to take advantage of, and the old "best practices" that have been changed and updated.
