Project & html

html
Do more stuff with fixing broken html.
So, after having created a page, have an assignment to diagnose a problem page and fix it adding comments.
Also, work through more advanced html such as abbr , blockquote etc.

Project

Save all project sites to the mgmt_04 area. Then have a class session where pick apart each one and make it better or look at the high points of each and put them together.

Observe effect on readability when styles are cleared in FF. Can the site be easily read and navigated?
