Lesson 1: Basic HTML Tags
(Editing the Class Project)

Editing the Class Project
The class project is where you will complete the exercises for this course. The main file for your class project is called homepage.htm and by default is stored as a:\homepage.htm, but you may have set yours up elsewhere in the "Getting Started" section. The steps below show how to to add your name to your class project. You can follow these steps to make all other changes to the class project.

Adding your name to your class project
1. 
If you haven't already done so, initialize your Class Project.
4. 
Start notepad.exe program or your favorite text editor, click "File," then click "Open."
5. 
Set "Files of type:" to "All Files (*.*)", locate your homepage.htm from where you set up your class project earlier, the default is a:\homepage.htm, then click "Open."
6. 
You are now looking at the HTML code for your class project. Find the words "By : Your Name Here." Replace the words "Your Name Here" with your name.
7. 
When saving this file, you will not be changing the name of the file. If asked, you want to save as text only. To save your file, click on "File" on the menu bar, then click "Save."
8. 
Go to the browser window displaying your class project, open a new window if needed. You may need to press "Refresh" or "Reload" to see your changes. Holding down <Shift> while hitting "Reload" or "Refresh" often does a better refresh.
9. 
While going through the course, each time you need to complete a problem, open the HTML file for that problem in Notepad.exe and update it the same as above.
