Module 3

Thanks to my own curiosity, prior to even considering this unit, with no prior experiece, I started developing my own web page guided by "Build your own Website the right way using HTML & CSS" by Ian Lloyd. It now seems that prior learning can be applied: much of Module three has been a review of what I had learnt through the publication.

Apart from a great revision for a beginner like me, it helps to drum some of the learnings in. There were a few new things that I happily took on board to continue the broadening of my web development skills; (note, i have written the code without the left < , so it does not get picked up as code and you can see it!)
  • hr> Horizontal rule
  • p> In the publication it was used with a closing tag and only used surrounding a paragraph. Module 3 demonstrates how to use it as a line break without above line spacing as per br>
  • pre> Preformatted text
  • & nbsp ;
  • dl> definition lists
  • address> address footers (for title or subject of page, date of creation/update, Copyright, name and email for web page author, name and hypertext link to affiliation /organization.

Not sure if I need to make notes on all the revision questions throughout the tasks, I read and answered them as revision and a sort of checklist - but didn't record the answers. (?) hope that will suffice?

Wowza alright !- working through those tasks took much longer than I expected, but I am happy that it is now done. I would love to upload it to Oasis so everyone can see and read the riviting info about Volcanos!! but I have been continually having trouble uploading (discussion board indicates I am not alone on this!).

I'm off to enjoy a nice break now - Best wishes for the season to all.
