Project 1 in the Unit 4 project list

Here is a suggested sequence of steps that will help you write Project 1 from the Unit 4 assignments.

1. Create a new folder for this assignment in My Documents. Call it Week4P1. You will put everything you need for this project in this folder. Do not put anything else in this folder.
2. Make one blank HTML program. Call it plan_links.html. Include the html tags, the head tags, the body tags, and the title tags. Write the page so that inserting html code is easy. Use vertical alignment for the various opening and closing tags.
3. Add an appropriate title.
4. Add comments in the heading section as follows:

<--your name -->

<!--the name of the project -->

<!--the date when you began coding the source module -->

<!--short description of what this page does -->

See mini-chapter six for a discussion of ìcommentsî in html

5. Add the source code for an ordered list of nine items where each item is the name of a planet, in order from the sun. You may get this far by copying the previous assignment to the new folder and removing the code you do not need.
6. Find a web page about each planet. Write down the address beginning with http and ending with .html. You may choose an astronomical or astrological page according to your taste in these matters.
7. Link the planet names in your list to the web site you found for each planet. Refer to Mini-chapter 4 in our on-line textbook. The code is fairly easy, simply insert the right href tag after the li tag and before the name of the planet.
8. Test your page fully to make sure that all of the links work.
9. Print the source code for the html page. Print a screen shot. Staple them with the screen shot on top.
