TASK: EXERCISE 6:1 CREATING A REAL HTML PAGE.

Here’s your chance to apply what you’ve learned and crate a real web page. No more disjointed or overly silly examples. The web page you’ll cerate in this section is a real one, suitable for use In the real world(or the real world of the web, at lest.)

Your task for this example is to design and create a home page for a bookstore called the bookworm, which specializes in old and rare books.

PLANNING THE PAGE

In lesson2, “preparing to publish on the web,” 1 mentioned that planning your web page before writing it usually makes building and maintaining the elements easier. First, consider the content you want to include on  this page. The following are some ideas for topics for this page:

·         The address and phone number of the bookstore

·         A short description of the bookstore and why it’s unique
·         Recent titles and authors

·         Upcoming events


 Now c9omeup with some ideas for the content you’re going to link to from this page. Each title in a list of recently acquired books seems like a logical candidate. You also can create links to more information about each book, its author and publisher, its pricing, and maybe even its availability.
The upcoming events section might suggest a potential series of links, depending on how much you want to  say about each event. If you have only a sentence or two about each one, describing them on this page might make more sense than linking them to another page. Why make your readers wait for each new page to load for just a couple of lines of text?

Other interesting links might arise in the text itself, but for now, starting with the basic link plan is enough.
