HTML Project
This describes what you have to write in HTML.
Use Notepad++ to write the HTML and use a browser to view it.
Use w3schools.com as a reference.
See class instructions on how to hand this in
- make a webpage about any topic e.g. A career that you're insterested in
- make a second page too
- link the two pages (so that you can go from one to the other
- Your pages do not have to be attractive (We'll do that with CSS later)
- Your pages must have the correct structure: (DOCTYPE, HTML, HEAD, BODY)
- You must have a title in the head section. Put your full name in the title
First two lines are always <!Doctype HTML> <HTML>
Last two lines are always </BODY> </HTML>
You can use these attributes in <body>: link, text, vlink, bgcolor.
"background" will put a background image on the webpage,
Note: later on all of these <body> attributes will be removed and done in CSS
Use the following tags
They can be anywhere in your document
- H1, H2, or H3
- p
- br
- b or strong
- i or em
- font (change the colour/size/font of some text)
- make a list of something (either using <ul> or <ol>)
- pre
- make a table
- a multiline comment
- hr
- img
- use any two escape codes. (e.g. for nonbreaking space, <, >, & →)
Do at least one of these other things:
- make a form
- thead / tbody, captions for figures
- make different things happen for various browsers
(for example: if it is IE 6, pop up a message saying that the browser is obsolete.)
- include mouse rollovers (this is better with CSS and Javascript)
- embed a YouTube video (not just a link to it)
- something else cool
Validate your HTML here or use Firefox (portable?) to view the source code. Errors are in RED.
