Midterm project

Due: Tuesday, February 5, 11:59:59 pm

Objective: Design a web site of at least 5 pages on a topic of your choice

Your site must contain the following:

1. An index page that introduces the topic and has navigation tools to the other parts of your site
2. One or more pages that present the topic itself in detail
3. A page or page division with links to related sites, presented in an ordered arrangement
4. An image gallery including thumbnails
5. An external style sheet for formatting (this does not count toward the five pages required)
6. A forms page with at least one of EACH of the following <form> elements:
   
   <input> types:
   • submit button
   • reset button
   • radio button
   • check box
   • text
   Other <form> elements:
   • <select> <option>

   The action attribute of <form> element has to be set to http://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~wfreis/cgi-bin/reflector.pl

7. Your site must be located in your home directory in a directory called, "midterm"; the main page must be called "index.html" (everything in lower-case letters). This page may NOT be a frameset; it may contain any legal HTML but frames.
8. Proper permissions must be set: everything must be accessible.

Other conditions:

1. You must be the sole author of the pages. No copies or rip-offs of other sites or pages are permitted.
2. The pages must be written with a simple text or HTML editor. No word-processor conversions are allowed
3. The site must contain material acceptable to a general audience: no pornography, Buffy, or Pavarotti.
4. All pages must share a common style to make it apparent that they belong together.
5. All style specifications must be contained in one external stylesheet, which must be located in your .../midterm/ directory and must be called "styles.css"
6. Use frames in at least one page.
7. Use tables with bgcolors, alignment, and col- and rowspan at least once.
8. Use at least two types of lists (ul, ol, or dl).
9. Your pages must be easily readable and attractive. Appearance is important!
