Day three: making web pages

Don't know yet if our zip problem is fixed. It will be soon, no doubt. Meanwhile, today,we will:

• discuss file types
• discuss the Windows file system
• make a web page

In working on the web page, we'll be going back and forth between two applications:

• the browser, Internet Explorer or Firefox, for admiring our work and for looking for ideas
• the editor, TextPad, for writing the HTML code for our page

Follow these steps:

• Create a folder called web on the desktop.
• In the browser, do View / Source on this page, then copy and paste it into the editor.
  Make changes to please yourself in the code.
• In TextPad, do File/Save As to save the code. Name it pagezero.html and put it in the web folder.
• Now admire your page in the browser!
  Make some changes, and admire it even more.

After pagezero comes pageone.

Reading assignment: pages 23 to 38 of the text by Felke-Morris (brown cover). The reference pages from 221 to 259 suggest lots of fun things to do, as well as where we're going.
