Webmaking 101 Task#2

January 28, 2012 — Leave a comment

Whoa. I just remembered that if you are going to use a Sharpie it’s best to do so in a well ventilated area. I have completed the first part of my badge quest last night and woke up this morning to tackle the second. Here is an example of my first attempt to copy some HTML by hand:

The first time I did anything like this was twelve years ago in 1996. In Rob Driscoll’s English class. It was at the Oceanside High School’s now defunct Global Internet Academy. Go Pirates!!!

I did have a hard time completing it a second time from memory. The format as far as paragraphs and spacing went was easy to remember. I did run into some trouble with the values of what the HTML tags were defining. All I had to do was peek for a moment and I was back on track. This is a fun exercise, Let me know what you think of my craftsmanship.
