Demo Instructions

You can follow along with your instructor to complete this build and/or you can use this document as a guide in completing the demo build.

Steps

  1. Download the document-outline.zip file.
  2. Extract the contents which contain the copy text that will be added to the web page.
  3. Create a copy of the framework folder which was built in a previous class (you can download this file, in a ZIP format, from Moodle if you have lost your copy).
  4. Rename the copy of the folder in step 3 to document-outline.
  5. Examine the copy.docx file to make note of the HTML elements you may need for this build; it is a good idea to make a list of these elements, in the order that you need them, to make the markup easier.
  6. The final version, only showing the first few sections, should look like:
    sectioning-complete
    For your layout, each of the second level headings denote that the content below is in its own section.

  7. The structure of a section, inside the <main> element will look like:

     <section>
     <h2> … </h2>
     <p> … </p>
     <p> … </p>
 </section>
  8. Validate your HTML using https://validator.w3.org/. Correct any errors before proceeding.
  9. Check your document outline using https://gsnedders.html5.org/outliner/. Your outline should look like the following:
    document-outline
  10. Once your HTML has been validated, and you have a valid document outline, open index.html in your web browser. If there are errors, make the necessary correction and refresh your web browser.

Exercise Instructions

Download the document-outline-ex.zip file from Moodle and extract its contents. Make sure you semantically rename the image. Your web page needs to have <header>, <main>, and <footer> sections. You will also need to organize your <main> into <section>s. You must validate your HTML and create a valid document outline:
