Project One: Midterm
Preliminary Personal Web Site
Time to try to fit all the pieces together for the first time and make a simple personal website by using the HTML concepts we have covered so far. The concept of this site is YOU. Who you are, what you like to do, your skills and talents, experiences you have had. This can also be the beginnings of your personal web site, which can evolve and expand as you learn more.
HTML Elements - mandatory minimum

- Minimum of 2 different types of lists
- Links to different pages
- Links to different locations on a page
- At least one table

- Use CSS Document and Inline Styles to define page styles, font-families, etc.
Project Requirements
- HTML tags as listed above.
- At least 5 pages of content (this does not include the splash page, flowchart, or HTML Elements page). Consider using 5 main pages, with 3 sub pages.
- Flowchart
- One HTML Elements page which describes which HTML elements were used and where.
This page MUST be linked to the HOME page. It is NOT one of the required five pages. List the elements and then the pages they are on.

Design Process
- Write a biography about yourself - a brief history of your life, current interests, employment history, academic history, multimedia, design and web skills, a gallery of your work and any other topic of interest.
- Create as many HTML documents as you need. Follow the usual procedure.
- Create a flow chart which shows what you plan on doing with each page. Show how the pages link together.
- Create a project folder named "YourLastNameP1" - e.g. "JonesP1". Only your last name, nothing else, unless two people have the same last name, then add your first initial - e.g. "JonesB".
- Save your opening page or home page as default.htm or index.htm
- Create your HTML documents as usual.
- Place all HTML documents and images into your project folder.
- Review your work in the browser and upload to the server.
- NOTE: Other project concepts must be approved by instructor first.
Final Presentation
- Upload your HTML documents to the server and view/critique them in a browser. Test to make sure all files are working once you upload your website.
