Your project will be graded based on:

  • Functionality: Whether or not all pages, links are working, can read the text, can navigation is easy.
  • Content: Whether or not the content on each page makes sense
  • Creativity: How creative you are in terms of content, design, layout of your website.

Please note:

  1. For this project, you will make up all the content.
  2. You are not permitted to use the same layout that I used in the HTML Lesson video (Module 3 – Web Development: Lesson 3: Using HTML to Build a Website). Doing so will result in a grade of zero.
  3. You should NOT send me any HTML files via email since this is a website and not just a collection of files. Websites must be published on Github pages. I will not grade any files sent via email. I will only grade work that has been uploaded onto Github pages.

TROUBLESHOOTING HTML

If you write some code that does not seem to work you likely have a simple problem. Try the following:

  1. Remember that file names (HTML and images) are case sensitive. Make sure that you keep all file names in lower case(e.g. mypic.jpg and NOTJpg) . In your code, when you refer to a file make sure the code is typed in lower case(e.g. <img src = mypic.jpg>)
  2. You may have forgotten to save your change or refresh the browser. To ensure you are viewing your latest modifications, save your file then refresh the browser.
  3. Check the syntax of your tags very carefully. HTML5 is a very forgiving language, which means something will usually show up in the browser, but it may not be what you expect. Since you should be making small changes, saving and testing your file, it should be fairly straightforward to find any errors in code. Just go back to the last thing modification you made. The most common mistake made is forgetting to close a tag. You can validate your code by typing in the URL to your website into an HTML validator such as http://validator.w3.org/ Links to an external site.
  4. Always check to make sure that you have used the extension “.html” to save your pages. Turn the file extension option on by opening any folder on your computer and clicking Tools>> Folder Options>> View. Make sure the checkbox for Hide extensions for known file type is NOT checked. This will allow you to see the file extension for all files on your computer. If you have accidentally saved your .html file as something like .htm.txt, simply right click on the file, select rename, delete the .txt extension, click enter.
