- Using a WYSIWYG: Introduction to Dreamweaver for creating and editing Web pages
Hand-code a web page using HTML that provides a brief introduction to who you are, including a biographical description of yourself, your careers goals/major, your interest in the course, and/or any other information that you'd like to provide. At minimum, your HTML page should include:
- A page title
- A header with your name
- Some form of narrative biographical information about yourself
- An ordered or unordered list of your favorite web sites with links to the sites
- A hot link with your e-mail address
- Comments in the code
Remember to play around with the formatting and select a background color and font styles for your page (Note that modern formatting uses CSS rather than presentational HTML code, but you are welcome to use either for this exercise). You're welcome to explore coding tables, inserting images, inserting horizontal rules, etc., but it's not required.
Save the file using your last name plus "e1", and then use the extension ".htm" (i.e. clevelande1.htm). Put it in the Exercise 1 folder on the shared drive.
