CLASS FIVE - Assignment Directions

Recreate the page as shown here.

  • The background color of the page was set to white
  • The Great Outdoors logo and headline were placed directly on the base page.
  • A form was defined with a METHOD=POST and ACTION="mailto:your email address goes here"
  • In order to achieve the neatly lined up form elements, a table was created that is 4 columns wide by 6 rows high.
  • The second columns on rows 1,2, and 6 were set to span across columns 3 and 4 in order to display the contents of those cells on a single line without line breaks.
  • View this page with your browser and test it to see if it's working correctly. You should receive an email message at the address you entered in the ACTION statement that lists the data entered in the form fields.
  • Create a new page titled privacy.htm and write down the key points about privacy you feel a company should adhere to so its customer feel comfortable givingpersonal information. To view an example, visit http://www.prairiepublic.org/corporate/privacy.htm which articulates Prairie Public Broadcasting's privacy policy. The privacy policy for The Great Outdoors does not have to be lengthy but should address whether the company sells its mailing list or discloses other personal information about its customers.
  • Link the text in the bottom right corner "Great Outdoors' Privacy Policy" to the page you just created.

NOTE: The appearance of the screen capture shown above is attained by viewing the documents in a Netscape browser window that is 550 wide on a Macintosh with a 800x600 screen resolution. Minor differences in appearance of your assignment may occur due to platform and browser differences. Do not be too concerned if your text lines do not wrap exactly the same and your type appears a little larger than what is shown.
