Assignment #2 (Due Friday, September 28)
Your first web site can be on any topic you wish (although good taste and good etiquette will apply!). This is probably a good opportunity to create a personal web site. However, the topic is completely up to you. It will be due Friday, October 13 th at 9 pm.
Assignment 2 site requirements: The size of your site should contain at least five pages at the top level and at least three sublevel pages. You should use all of the major categories of tags that I presented from week1 through week 4.
- use a table as a layout tool
- insert a table to display data if needed
- use color as a table or page or division background
- use either an ordered (1,2,3 ...) or an unordered list (this is an unordered list)
- insert an image
- use headers
Define each of the pages you intend to build for your “class” site with proposed file names for each of the pages. You will have a main title page or “home page”. This page will be named, “index.html”. This page will be a gateway to the rest of the pages in your site.
Your project should include the following:
- For a C:
- the standard structure that was presented in class (doctype, etc.)
- a clearly identified web master (that's you)
- at least one table
- at least one list
- valid links to all pages in your project (including a link from subpages back to the homepage for the project
- For a B
- a unique title for each page (<head><title>unique text identifying page </title></head>)
- at least one accessible image on your page (at this stage I am not assuming that you've created these images but that you 1) download them from the free sites or 2) used scanned images. Accessible simply means that you include a descriptive text alt tag in your image tag - <img src="filename.ext" alt="descriptive text" />)
- consistent navigation from page to page of site (which includes a way back to your homepage for this project from each main topic page)
- consistent use of headers throughout your site (for example <h1>'s to label your pages and <h3>'s to label the the sections within your pages)
- a consistent "look and feel" with color and image(s) so that your site of 5-6 pages (or more if you really wish) holds together
Your pages should follow XHTML transitional standards as tested by the W3 Consortium at http://validator.w3.org/. (If you aren't going for an A, some deprecated font tag related errors are acceptable.)
For an A:
- use 2-3 css styles. These styles can be in an internal style sheet. (Project 2: external style sheet & more styles)
- use several images
- provide an email link for people to contact the webmaster (that's you)
