• Convert the graphic images to .jpg format for posting on the Web
• Create a basic HTML page that includes the following
o <HEAD> and <BODY> elements
o Specifying a page color in hexadecimal format
o A tiled BACKGROUND of your own design
o A page title using the <H> headline tag
o Body copy using the lorem ipsum text and the <P> paragraph
o An unordered (bulleted) list using the <UL> and <LI> tags
o Formatting using the <BLOCKQUOTE> tag
o Call to a graphic using the <IMG SRC> tag
o Link to an external Web resource using the <A HREF> tag

That requires an image editor program.

BTW the URLs to the images you embedded in your post seem to be password protected.

Follow the links to each element here: http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/alist.html

Same as above (except that in real web pages you shouldn't use a semantical element like BLOCKQUOTE for formatting).

Sounds like you're supposed to do this in HTML alone, in which case the BODY element can be used.

This is what our teacher gave us as an example

</HEAD> CLOSING TAG FOR TITLE
<BODY BGCOLOR=#f3af0b BACKGROUND=images/tile.png>
<H1>TITLE THAT APPEARS IN THE ENTRY TO YOUR WEBPAGE</H1>
<IMG SRC=images/black.png Height=5 Width=800> A GRAPHIC RULE
<IMG SRC=images/parrot.png> THE ENTRY PICTURE
<BLOCKQUOTE> INDENTS TEXT 1 TAB
<H2>SUBTITLE OR CHAPTER TITLE SPECIFIES FONT SIZE AND WEIGHT</H2>

<P><H3> A PARAGRAPH OF CONTENT TEXT</H3></P>
<A HREF=http://www.phoenixzoo.org/ TARGET=WINDOW>The Phoenix Zoo</A></P> A LINK TO ANOTHER WEBPAGE

There you go. Remove the comments (blue text), then edit the template according the assignment.

This is invalid though:

CODE
<P><H3> A PARAGRAPH OF CONTENT TEXT</H3></P>

--a heading is not allowed inside a text paragraph. Did your teacher really create that? sad.gif

Here the P element's start tag is missing:

CODE
<A HREF=http://www.phoenixzoo.org/ TARGET=WINDOW>The Phoenix Zoo</A></P>


Also you should quote attribute values (it's not always necessary but a good habit), for example the HREF value in links, or the SRC value in image elements.

Ouch. Where has your teacher learnt HTML?

QUOTE
<HEAD> OPENING TAG FOR TITLE IN PAGE


No. <title> is the opening tag for TITLE. <head> is the opening tag for HEAD. HEAD can contain a lot more than TITLE. And that's what it's all about, containers.

BLOCKQUOTE is for - taa-taa! - quoted blocks of text, not to create indention. Browsers style blockquote differently, so it's a poor choice at that.

I'm not nitpicking. I just want you to know that you may be learning some bad habits in this class. Feel free to tell your teacher. wink.gif Do what they want you to do, but keep in mind that it may be poor HTML and you'll have to relearn later.

Also, I removed the password protected images in your first post since we can't see them anyway and the login prompt gets old really fast. smile.gif
