CS 315 Homework 1: HTML

Assigned: 26 January 2018   Due: 5 February 2018

This homework problem is to be done individually, not in pairs or other groups. You are to define a set of web pages that meet the requirements described below. When you are done, you should submit a link to your main page using the Assignment Submission page.

Your solutions should use valid HTML5 syntax. You should validate your pages using the W3 validator as described in class. I do not expect (or want) you to use CSS for this assignment, so your pages will just have a standard font with black text on a white background. That is fine.

  1. Create, test and validate an HTML5 document that is the home page of a company that sells lots of different kinds of doodads and whatsits and is hoping to soon enter the doohickey and whatchmacallit markets. Your document should include images and descriptions of at least three different example products. You must have at least one unordered list, at least one ordered list, and at least one list that has a nested list within it. You must include a table and your table must have at least one item that takes up multiple columns and at least one item that takes up multiple rows. You should have more detailed descriptions of products that are stored in separate documents and are accessible through links from the home document. All the links that you choose to have in your document should point to actual documents (yours or someone else's) that actually exist.
  2. Your submission will be evaluated on whether or not it contains all of the required components, meets all the required specifications and on whether it is valid HTML5.
