Overview 3 © R. Craig Collins, 2005/7

Items that should be accomplished before the beginning of the current time frame:
   • Created your first web page
   • Read remainder of Tutorial One

Reminder: Did you check your TC WebMail? Did you check the Quarantine folder?

Items to accomplish during the current course time frame:

•Read\Review
   • HTML Tags (a review of html, explanation of attributes, examples, and special html characters)
   • Instructor notes on Tutorial (beginning mid session 1.2)

     • Note: If you need to stop work on a web page:
          Save your changes in your text editor (Notepad)
          When ready to resume, double click web page to open browser
          If using IE, choose View\Source to open Notepad for editing

   •Zip: A file that can contain multiple files, or more importantly, a file that is compressed to take up less space;
           useful for emailing attachments, or for uploading.
           NOTE: the ZIP contents are not always usable as is.
           Thus, you should not try to read or edit zip files until you download them and extract them.
           If redoing a lab, delete the zip, and edit the original files.

About links on my webpages
I expect you to read each linked item above at least once.
Most of these linked web pages will have links, too.
Some of these links continue the topic, some of the links are for optional, additional information, but some links refer to pages you have already read...
those links are there not to force you to re-read a page you have already seen, but simply for easy access to something related, IF you need a reminder, for examples, etc.
