Due: Monday, July 26, 1999; 11:59 PM
Submission: Electronic only! Send me email with your URL. Make sure that all your files for this assignment are stored in a file called hw1 directly under your .html directory, so I can find without having to search.

1. Make your own web page (10 points)

  1. If you don't have your own web page ("home page"), develop one now. (If you don't know how: Tutorial: Making Your Own Home Page . (The local directory is .html instead of public_html in the tutorial.)

  2. Put hyperlinks on your web site to at least one remote web site (outside BGU) and at least one local site.

  3. Put a "mailto" link so people can send you mail from your web page.
  4. Put at least one (small!) in-line image, and at least one (small!) linked image.

2. Cascading style sheets (CSS) (40 points)

  1. Create a linked cascading style sheet (CSS), call it hw.css. From now on, your entire web site for this course will be controlled by this CSS. You are free to define your style however you want, as long as you demonstrate at least three different aspects of the style that you are controlling.
  2. At least in one location in your web site use a local style to modify the style from what you have defined in your original style sheet.

3. Forms (50 points)

  1. Create form(s) to remotely control the following aspect of a document template based on a linked CSS:
    1. The format (size, font, and color) of the six headers H1 through H6
    2. The format of a list item (li -- such as this one) in an ordered (ol) and unordered list (ul), (including indentation)
    3. A table, including the number of rows and columns, and the formats of the table entries.
    Note: At this time, you are only required to create the forms; they are not expected to be functional, yet.
