HTML and CSS
Take some time this week and tidy up your page. Work on the following:
- HTML tags should be nested properly (i.e. <p> to start a paragraph followed by </p> to end the paragraph) and indented so that it is easy to read.
Tip: Notepad++ is a great editor to use for html - it has a plugin called XML Tools that you can use to automatically indent your html!
- Update your CSS so you use fonts and colours effectively - is it easy to read and pleasing to the adult eye (I'm your audience and I hate reading text on a neon background).
