html sites...

You should be nearing the end of your hand coded HTML adventure. Our goal is for each of you to have a simple 4 page site, linking to each page with consistent navigation in a table (feel free to copy and paste this part of the code). If you are ahead of the game and complete with your basic pages here are 3 options for extra credit:
  • create a banner/heading for each page in PhotoShop
  • add anchored links to navigate "down" a page
  • add any "advanced techniques" from this page (styles, floating frames, marques, etc)
Our goal for these sites is for them to look nice, function seamlessly, and inform the reader/viewer. Take a look at your site in comparison to a similar site/topic, how does yours stack up???

  • 4+ pages
  • TABLE <> for navigation that links to all 4 pages
  • TABLE <> for content
  • outside link(s)
  • image(s) on each page
  • content (actual informative info about your topic)
  • aesthetically pleasing layout/design/colors/etc
