STAR Early College High School @ Erasmus
Internet Seminar: Creating Interactive Web Pages


Week 2 : HTML - Part II
Project: Movie Review Page - Part II


In this project, you will add more features to the home page you created last week.
  1. Change the background - either change the background color or use a background image. Be careful - make sure that the text and links still show out clearly. You may want to change the color of the text or links.
  2. Add a picture - you can find some Brooklyn College images here. Make sure that the image files are in .gif, .jpg/.jpeg, or .png format. Do not use image files that end with .bmp or .art - they will not show up on all browsers (even though they may work with AOL.)
  3. Add at least 3 links to other movie review pages, with a description of why you chose those links.
  4. Make sure that your page includes both a title and a heading (and make sure that you understand the difference!)
  5. Your page should contain a form. The form should contain at least one text box in which the user can type the name of his/her favorite movie and a button which should be labeled with the words "View Now!" (At this point, nothing will happen when the button is pressed, but later we will learn how to associate pressing a button with some action.)

These links may help you out:

Optional: Some of you were interested in learning how to incorporate audio (or other multimedia files) into Web pages. If you are interested, you can look here for a discussion and some examples.

How to Submit

  1. Email the html file to your instructor as an attachment
  2. Print out both of the following and turn them in:
    1. Print out a copy of your web page as it appears in the browser (click on the "print" button on top of the browser window.)
    2. Print out a copy of the html source file, with the HTML tags, as you see it in Notepad or Composer. (Open the file in Notepad, click on File, then Print; or view HTML Source in Composer.)
