A sister of mine came to me asking help making their project. They were studying simple HTML, so they hadn't learn the css nor Javascript.They asked me to make a simple HTML project about their school.

For me i first thought it would be an easy task, just use the HTML and i am done. But really getting into it i found it harder to use just the HTML and nothing else. But i went on and have made a preety good HTML project for them with only HTML. But it really hard to work with HTML so i couldn't stop myself using a small CSS,
Code:
style="background:url(files/back6.jpg) bottom right no-repeat;"
it was what i used. Except this line on every page everything else on the website is purely HTML only.

Here's what i have made.

you can also download the whole website here
*users2.titanichost.com/chanchali/mva.zip just click the save target as.

I've used a colour sheme of light blue.
It is the use of plain HTML and some pictures, so the design may not be prettier but i have used the best i can.

Naah, that too isn't CSS. it known as "inline styles". Whoa....so you finally made no use of CSS :p

Why not put it up on oswd.org under a suitable license, if it's your own creation?

I guess it is css(Cascade style sheet). The reason you see with the full form of css and other is that the used of the values in it is same as the css.

oops i am pointing my self.

you guys are welcome to post your creation.

naah, its HTML!
btw it would have been better of you have used CSS. just my 2 cents. External CSS offer great control over multiple pages at a single instance!

Nah, it IS CSS,
Its not an external .css file, but a embeded code...

Nice one. :)

BTW, its embedded style and not Cascading Style Sheets which means referring to a .css file. :p

Nice and simple, I like it. But why did you end up doing her project instead of teaching her? This is why I do not like teachers giving this kind of project work or homework. It defeats the purpose for which it is given :)

This is what happens where you have a smaller one and the bada bhai knows much about such things.

Well I am the eldest, have two younger brothers and always advised them on their projects whenever they asked. Never actually did it for them. It helps to build independence.

You want my work ? You'll see it after 2nd or 3rd April 2008. I'm busy with the boards till 27th March 2008. After 27; I will start developing my website which will be completed in 5-6 days and will be available at www.itech7.com

Don't try to access the link now; because it will give you server not found error.

Apache 2.2.8 / Compiled !


hehe k, I think I saw that when I installed lighttpd

lighttpd is amazing I have 12 websites running (only 4 receives mild traffic others are in development) and it uses only 20MB ram... when I used apache it used to gobble up around 80MB ram right from the start :D

but still it has a few minor problems.. if possible for you guys try using lighttpd
