CISB11 HTML Assignment
CISB11 HTML Assignment
With this assignment you will use Windows Notepad to write an HTML file. You will then open
the HTML file using the Internet Explorer (IE) browser.
Assignment:
1. Use Internet Explorer to locate an image on the Internet that you wish to place on your
home page.
a. Place your mouse pointer over the image you wish to include in your home page and
press the Right mouse button. Because the HTML code you will be writing assumes a
JPG image, we will first check if the image you chose is a JPG image. Click on the
Properties option. The file name within the properties window should have a file name
extension indicating that it is a JPG image. If it does not, find another image that is in a
JPG format.
b. Cancel the Properties window and right click on the image. A menu will appear on the
screen. Click on the Save Picture As option
c. The Save in dialog window is now open. In the Save in box at the top of the dialog
window click on the down arrow to navigate to the folder or drive you want to store the
image (flash drive, desktop, My documents, etc…)
d. You will also want to change the name of the image you are about to save. The name of
the image will be myimage [all one word]. To change the name of the image move to
the File Name box and highlight the current file name. As you begin typing the new file
name the previous name will be deleted.
e. If necessary, change the “Save As Type” textbox to JPEG format.
f. Finally click on the Save button. The image is now ready to be used for your home page.
2. Use NotePad to type your home page. NotePad can be found by going to Start/All
Programs/Accessories/NotePad
a. Below is the HTML code you will type to create your Web page. The words in Arial
font is the program code that you need to type. The comments about the program (in
Bold letters) should not be typed.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>My First Web Page</TITLE> This is the blue title at the top of
the Home Page Window.
</HEAD>

<BODY> This is the beginning of the main body of your home page window.
<CENTER><P><IMG SRC=”myimage.jpg”></P></CENTER>
</BODY> This command closes the body of the home page window
5. You can view the HTML file named mywebpage by double-clicking on the file icon. Your
computer’s default browser (most likely IE) will open the file and display it in Web page
format.
6. If your Web page displays a box with a red X instead of your image, make sure that the file
name within the HTML code exactly matches the name you gave the image. If it does, then
try going back to the Internet and selecting a different image—making sure that the new
image you found is in the JPG format.
7. ZIP the HTML file and the image into a single ZIP file.
