CSC 221 Weekly Assignments: Week 24

CSC 221


Overview

This week we will have a website challenge in which each group will work together to create the most impressive, nicest looking, standards compliant website they can.

Thursday, February 15th 5th Period

Classwork / Homework

Since it was apparent on Tuesday that y'all wanted more structure to this project, here it is. In your personal directory on your web server, you should do each of the following:

  1. Copy the contents of the minimal page from Lesson 1 of Getting Down with HTML into a file named index.html.
  2. Add a title (something like My Homepage) between the open and close title tags in the head.
  3. Create an h1 element immediately after the open body tag with the same contents as your title.
  4. Verify that this page is valid.
  5. Begin iteratively doing the following:
    • Add a new html element to your page. Try adding a list, or an image, or a paragraph, etc.
    • Verify that your page still validates.
  6. Add a link from your page to your group's homepage.
  7. Once you are satisfied with the content of your page, use available time to begin to style it with CSS, using the same iterative, small steps with validation checks that you used for HTML.

Tuesday, February 13th and Thursday, February 15th
