Chapter 3 Quiz and Guided Tour

Tour

 

Now that you know how web pages are put together, go back to the web and

notice these things:

 

���� Find a page where the text bumps up against the left edge. Is it

appealing? What would you do to make the page more appealing

and the text easier to read?

 

���� Find a page with an unacceptable background. What is your immediate

impression when you come across a page like that?

 

���� Find a page that has an icon for a missing graphic. Why might

the graphic be missing?

 

���� Look for this address: www.wolphincorn.com. Did you get a message?

Why did you get that message?

 

���� Find a table with the borders showing.

 

���� Find a page where it is obvious the designer used tables, even though

the borders are not showing. How can you tell?

 

���� Find a page or two where the designer probably should have used tables.

How would tables have made it a better page?

 

���� Find several email links. Do you find any email links that you don’t know

are for email until you click them or check their address in the status bar?

 

���� Find several pages with anchors (links that jump you to somewhere else

on the same page, instead of to another page).

 

���� Find at least two external links and two internal links. How can you tell

whether they are external (remote) or internal (local)?

 

���� Find a page with several frames. Spend some time there and poke around.

Notice how frames are not like tables! What do you think?
