On-line Evaluation
You may now log into ieval to submit evaluation and comments about CS8 labs and about me. So I would appreciate if you can do the online evaluation if you can. Any comments are welcomed.
Final Lab?
Yes, this is the final lab. At this point, I'd like to say that I really appreciate you guys' cooperation during the quarter, and hope you have learned something through the CS8 labs.
For today, we will do the last HTML assignment, and then follow an online tutorial to learn how to create webpages more easily with Mozilla Composer.
HTML Assignment 6: Custimizing page style using Cascading Style Sheet (CSS)
Today we will customize how different HTML elements are displayed.
We have learned to create different elements of the page. These include normal paragraph (p), underlined text (u), italic text (i), heading with larger fonts (h1 through h6), links displayed in blue underlined text (a), etc. However, we may not like the default look of the page. For example, we may want to change the background color, or we may want links to be displayed without being underlined and want them to be in a red color. CSS is provided for this purpose. It can make your pages look so much different.
We will learn how to add CSS to your webpage.
This Guided Tour will be covered at the beginning of the lab. If you come early, you may preview this guided tour before I talk about this in class.
Create Webpage with Mozilla Composer
We have learned to code webpages manually using HTML. You might not do too much raw coding in the future. So we will learn to create a webpage using a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) webpage editor, Mozilla Composer. Note that I am not saying the HTML knowledge you've learned is useless. Actually it could be very very useful. With WYSIWYG tools generate the webpage for you, you can fine tune it using your knowledge in HTML. Your page will look so much nicer with a little bit of HTML knowledge. Click this link to go to your lecturer's description about today's lab.
