Due at the end of today's class
Writing a Web Page
Welcome to the world of Web Page making. The goal of today's lab is to free you from
the constraints of your Facebook page, so you can start designing your own web pages.
You will create your web page using native HTML. For this lab you should not
use a web page generating program such as Dream Weaver, or even Microsoft Word.
Instead, you will create the HTML file
using the text editor, Notepad. Your HTML should be neat, with
indentation showing the structure of the file and white space (blank lines, tabs
and spaces) where needed to make
the file easy to read. You will be graded in part on the neatness of your code.
You may want to review the following:
Create a text file named username_home.html. For example, my html file would
be named croyden_home.html. In this file you will write the HTML code for a home
page about yourself.
You should be creative and have your web page reflect your personality. Some
things you might want to include in your web page are hobbies or special interests
you have and related pictures. However, there are some things required by this
assignment, they are:
- A descriptive title in the menu bar of the page
- Your Name.
- A bulleted list. It could be a list of
interests, a list of classes this semester, or anything like that.
- At least two pictures, one of which links to another website.
- A link to HC's home page.
- At least one other link to a different web-site
- Colored background.
- At least four different styles of text (e.g. bold, different sizes, italic, etc).
Be sure to save your files and graphics on your Google drive.
What To Turn In.
- A printout of your html file (you do not need to print the graphics files).
- A note telling your instructor whether or not you want your web page to appear on the
World Wide Web, reachable through the HNRS 299 assignment page.
- In addition to the hard copy mentioned above, email your username_home.html file
along with all the other associated files (e.g. graphics files) to me at
