Course Outline
We'll begin with a lecture/demonstration: a brief Web tour and construction

what it looks like and how to get around using a Web browser
-
Formatting multimedia documents
using HyperText Markup Language (HTML)
-
Linking documents together using HTML anchors and
Uniform Resource Locators (URL's)
