DISCUSSION 5 OVERVIEW

HTML – Basic HTML Exercises Using Notepad

In this discussion you will use   Microsoft NotePad to create a simple personal web page and post it as your initial post for all your classmates to see and respond to it. Begin by following the steps below.

 

 

1 – Creating a directory (folder) and your initial Notepad file

  1. Create a folder on your desktop to save your HTML pages in (call it “My web page“)
  2. Start Notepad. Type the document tags below in your Notepad file.
  3. This file will ultimately be your Homepage file.

2 – Now save the Notepad file to the HTML directory you created (the “My web page” folder)

  1. Save your Notepad file in your HTML directory and name it txt.
  2. Now close your index.txtfile and then in the HTML directory folder rename the file html within the folder.
    • You can change the extension .txtof your Notepad file to .html to view the file and back to .txt to edit your progress as you start adding your HTML
    • NOTE: Opening your Notepadfile with the .html extension will open it in the default internet browser installed in your computer to view it as a web page. Opening the file with the .txt extension will open the file in Notepad for editing.

Enter your custom title by typing it between the <title> and the </title>

    • <img src= (this stands for Image Source)
    • “the_title_of_your_image.jpg” (this name and extension needs to reflect the actual name ad extension of your image or picture)
    • width=134
    • height=200
    • hspace=5 (specifies the amount of space on either side of image)
    • border=0>
