• CSC 363 Lab #1: Course Home Page on profhicks server
  • Due Dates will be in the Task list in Blackboard
  • 10 points distributed as follows:

Create a course home page, to be stored on your server account when accounts are created. (must be named index.html)  You have quite a bit of flexibility on what your course home page should look like, but ultimately you will need the following:

  1. The browser title bar should read " CSC 363 Home Page by Your Name "
  2. Include a level 1 heading with your Name or whatever at the top of your page.
  3. Include a  list of assignment links (either unorder or ordered html list).  In your list include entries for:
    • JavaScript #1
    • JavaScript #2
    •  PHP Lab 1
    •   PHP Lab 2 
    •  
     
  4. Place a picture of yourself on this page.   Your picture should be relatively small, but it could serve as a link to a larger image, if you choose.  If you do not have access to a digital camera, you can scan a print picture of yourself, or make arrangements with me to take your picture with a digital camera on campus.  Scanners are available on campus also.
     
  5. Your page should be valid HTML 4.0.  That means:
    • HTML elements must be properly nested
    • HTML documents must be well-formed
    • Tag names must be in lowercase
    • All HTML elements must be closed
    • Attribute names must be in lower case
    • Attribute values must be quoted
       
  6. Publish your page to the account you were assigned on the profhicks.com web server. 
    There are two ways you can upload your home page to your profhicks account.
    1. You can upload your file to your profhicks server using  FileZilla as you used in 263. Here is a Flash video tutorial on uploading to the profhicks server using the FTP program FileZilla.   ( There are links to FileZilla download sites for both windows and Macintosh computers at: http://www.umflint.edu/its/helpdesk/support_centers/software.htm )
       
    2. You can use the File Manager feature on the Control Panel of your profhicks account.
