Tables Assignment

In this assignment, you will create a folder called hw5 and a single html file that contains a weekly schedule. This schedule may be imaginary or real. You may use a text editor such as Notepad or Notepad++ or Dreamweaver.

  1. In this assignment, use only embedded styles (those at the top of the page between <style></style> tags). Do not use inline styles or an external stylesheet. (10 points)
  2. Create a table with 8 columns (10 points); the first column will indicate time slots during the day, the rest will be for each day of the week
  3. Do not use obsolete tags or attributes in your table coding; use appropriate CSS instead. (10 points)
  4. In the first row of the table, put in a heading that spans all 7 columns (10 points)
  5. In the second row of the table, put in text designating each day of the week - use <th> tags for this row instead of <td> tags (10 points)
  6. The rows below the second row will be for time slots during the day - you should have at least three time slots. Each time slot will in a separate row and the text for the timeslot should be designated by <th> tags instead of <td> tags (10 points)
  7. In the appropriate row (time slot) and column (day), put your schedule items using <td> tags- you should have at least five schedule items (10 points).
  8. Each schedule item should be given a different background color - since you aren't permitted to use inline styles, the simplest way to do this is by styling classes or id's. Using contextual css instead of classes or id's is permitted. (10 points)
  9. The text of the schedule item should be easily readable against the background color (10 points)
  10. Have fun! (10 points)

When finished, upload your hw5 folder to your student webspace and submit through Blackboard the URL to your hw5 folder on your student webspace. Copy and paste the URL, do not type it.
