HTML

My previous exposure to learning HTML was in the IRLS 504 class in which I created my first website. The first website was quite plain but it included the necessary components. I skimmed through the PowerPoint to reacquaint myself with the declaration and the process of how to post the page to the U-System website. I had always wondered how to add another website to the system without disturbing the previous one and the assignment notes were helpful in explaining that a subdirectory should be added. For this website I wanted to make it more visually pleasing so I decided to add a little color. I used the HTML tutorials at w3schools.com to refresh my memory on the standard elements and attributes. The tutorials proved to be helpful. I then did a Google search for “html tags” to find out more about other tags that I could include. I decided to experiment with indenting the text on the sides and adding a horizontal rule. When experimenting with HTML tags, I found that websites with a table providing the tag, explanation and an image of what the tag does were the most helpful.
