HTML Haiku Project

For next class please make sure that you have the template for the webpage completed as much as possible. We didn't get into CSS yesterday but you should have the majority of your HTML (content) laid on the page. By next lab you should have:

-built your two folders html and assets folders
-created four pages in text wrangler index, page 1, 2, 3
-placed page 1, 2, 3 in the html folder
-placed your images in the assets folder

• entered your haiku on the index page
• entered the individual lines from your haiku on each page
• inserted your pictures and resized (either by hand or in photoshop)
• altered the background color
• changed font (if you choose) 
• created hyper links on your index page
• change font size/color

Please make use of the HTML Introduction sheet, a lot of the coding to do these things can be found there if you get stuck.

***For those of you wanting to keep the same format for your page as Prof. Lucas you will need  drag his template into text wrangler and work from there. Copying the code (we did for some of you) will give you a white unformatted background. Thanks Kevin! 

For those of you more advanced:

•  consider changing the banner
• changing the borders, divs 

There are couple of you that have border/div questions I promise to get back to you in the next couple of days, you will hear from me by Thursday sometime.

One final note: Patience, Patience, Patience. If you are having an issue with code keep reworking it often times we make small syntax errors. If you need to, walk away for a few minutes to reset your eyes.
