Creating a Web Page using HTML and
Microsoft Word
Working with XML
This quiz is worth 32 points. The quiz will require that you follow the indicated directions and create the specified items on your computer. Therefore, it is important that you are able to use the software and techniques covered in the lab sessions. You must be able to access your quiz files from the Quizzes folder in my section of the CBA network drive (S drive). Make sure you know where that quiz folder is. You must be able to transfer the quiz files over to the disk that I provide for your quiz. If you are unable to transfer the quiz files over to the diskette that has been provided for your quiz, then the instructor will transfer the files for you, but your quiz score will be reduced. Some of the quiz files will be created from scratch, while other files will be retrieved from my Quiz folder in the CBA network drive (S drive).
You will have three sections to your quiz.
1) You will be asked to work with and/or create an XML instance document based
upon tags that I give to you in a diagram.
2) You will be asked to use Notepad and HTML commands to create a web page.
3) You will be asked to use Microsoft Word to create a web page.
XML
You will be given a schema diagram and you will be
required to use that diagram to create an XML instance document (root element,
mid-level elements, attributes, and actual data content). The resulting XML
instance document must be well-formed and it must conform to the schema diagram
that is provided. DO NOT FORGET that the
XML tags CANNOT CONTAIN SPACES within the actual tag < XMLCommand>.
I might also give you an XML file with errors in it, and you will need to make it well-formed. Make sure that you review the requirements of a well-formed instance document. DO NOT FORGET that the XML tags CANNOT CONTAIN SPACES within the actual tag < XMLCommand>.
HTML portion and the portion where
you create a web page using Microsoft Word
In general, I will give you a picture of a web page and you will need to be
able to recreate that picture. You
should be able to create or do any of the following components
using NOTEPAD AND MICROSOFT WORD:
A) Create a basic web page using HTML or Microsoft Word.
B) Download an image or background and add it to your page.
C) Use bold, italics, underline, centering, and different font heading sizes.
D) Use horizontal rules and line breaks.
E) Create hypertext and mailto links.
F) Create ordered and unordered lists.
G) Correctly use the head and title commands.
H) Create a table. You will also need to be able to display your table borders.
I) Create a hypertext link to another file (similar
to the link that we created in class.)
J) Be able to create a return link back to the web document that you create.
K) Make sure that you can also open an existing html document with Notepad and
Microsoft Word. I might create the document, have you open it, and then add
additional content and/or commands.
The HTML portion of your quiz grade will be based upon being able to create the items listed above AND ALSO using correct HTML code, as demonstrated during your pre-lab and lab HTML activities. Even though something appears to work, you WILL NOT RECEIVE FULL CREDIT FOR THAT ITEM IF YOU USE INCORRECT HTML CODE. With some of our newer browsers, it is possible to incorrectly type in your code (such as the code to add a background to your page or forgetting to turn off your table) and still have the background and table appear. WE WANT TO PRACTICE TYPING IN GOOD CODE AND TYPING IT CORRECTLY.
