- Semantic Markup (and some new tags) Semantic refers to what words mean, not how they are presented or "designed."
- Marking up content on your own.
Today we will have 10 minutes to finish up the quizzes from yesterday. Please remember to put your team member names on the top of the page and either print it or email it to me. Students who finished yesterday and handed in the assignment on time will receive a +2 on the quiz.
Read the following notes CAREFULLY:
1) First review the quiz answers, which are posted in the "Quiz Answers blog post."
2) Remember that HTML was designed for semantic markup. In other words, HTML is used to mark up words for clarity of meaning, not for design purposes. Think of HTML as a language for making an outline for a paper.
3) Some tags to know are h1, h2, ...h6
p
ul
ol
li (both ul and ol need li)
em
comment
