Lab 6 - Creating a Web Page
Using HTML
Create a web page
using html code. Do not use a Web Authoring Program; you
can do that in the next lab. Create
your page in Notepad or any application that can save files as a text file. You will need to edit the
extension to be either .htm or .html. If you are using MS Word, you might will
need to make sure you first save the file as a Word file, then save it as a
text file, then re-naming the extension .html, this will make it easier to
re-edit the file.
Your web page must have the following:
* Your name centered in the first or second line. 5
pts
* A table with two columns and three rows,
total of six cells (all six cells must contain words). 25 pts
* You must have two links to the Internet that work. 5
pts
* A link to your e-mail address. 5 pts
* You must have 2
different font sizes, something bolded, and something underlined. 5 pts
* A background
color and text color. 5 pts
Here are the HTML
tags you will need to use: (you can
use others too)
<html> at the beginning of the page
</html> at
the end of the page
<table border=2> starts a table with a
border
<tr> starts a row
<td> starts a cell
</td> ends a cell
</tr> ends the row
</table> ends
the table
<br> is a
line break, youŐll needs two to have a blank line or
<P> end
of paragraph marker
<b> turns on bold </b> turns off bold
<u> turns underline on </u> turns if off
<center> turns center on </center> turns center off
<font size=4> É </font> sometimes you need the quotes around the
number and sometimes you donŐt.
These font sizes are not like in MS Word, size 3=medium,
Todo a link use the <a> tag, examples:
<a href=http://www.apple.com/>
Click here to see Apple's page </a>
<a href="mailto:dgomez@csustan.edu">DebbieŐs
e-mail</a>
<BODY
BGCOLOR=purple TEXT=red > for a purple background with a
red text, yours can be any color you like. </BODY>
Here is a link to a web page
with more tags
Make sure you
test out your web page by opening it in a web page browser like Internet
Explorer or Firefox. You might need
to use the open command, not just
double clicking on it. This can be
kind of tricky. If you need to do
any changes you will need to go back to your .doc file or your .txt file and then
re-save it as a text file with the .htm or .html extension. If you canŐt see the extensions
here are some additional directions.
Good Luck!!!
