IT 111, Principles of Information Technology

Simple HTML

You will upload the URL for the Simple Web-page you create.

1.  IN FILE MANAGER or Windows Explorer, create a folder for this class (you should call it   it111  , lowercase and without spaces)  in your   WWW   folder on the  W: drive.  You should not create this folder in Notepad (you might have problems with upper and lower cases).

2. Open Notepad and enter the following text:
    <HTML>

        <HEAD>
            <TITLE> Simple IT111 Web-page </TITLE>
        </HEAD>

        <BODY>
            Hi There
        </BODY>

    </HTML>
 

3.  Save the HTML document from Notepad to your new  it111  folder.  Make sure the file name has the     .htm   extension and does NOT contain any spaces.

4.  Figure out the complete URL (not logical filename or UNC) you would use to open this file.

5.  Open your HTML document, using the above URL, from a browser.  Make sure that your page loads.

6. IN-CLASS, log into Moodle and enter the URL of your web-page. The instructor will confirm that your page loads.

7. Once you have confirmation that your URL is valid, add two of the simpler elements we discussed in class to your document (for example, bolding, italics, headers, etc.).   Also, change the background color of your page by using a valid hexadecimal number.  Be sure to Save your document to capture these changes.
