Overview

You will create a simple Web page on your hometown.

Requirements

Develop a Web page presenting information on your hometown (or neighborhood or street). It should contain the following:

1. Some picture of your hometown. Search the web and find the link.
2. A short description describing your hometown, description of the picture, your life there, etc.
3. At least one link referencing a page for further information. This should be an inline link.
4. Logical tags or div/span tags with styles (see p. 355 in the Reed text) instead of using physical tags.
5. At least one tag that was not presented in class.
6. Learn how to use an HTML comment (this is explanatory text that appears in the source code, but you don't see in the web page). See page 20 in the Reed text for details. Create an HTML comment that notes the new tag you used in your page.

An elegant page with effective writing, clean formatting and a good balance of white space, text and image will merit a high score. Gratuitous animations and other gimmicks will lose points! Your HTML code (source code) should also be neat and well organized.
