Only three students in class today. They worked on the various JavaScript exercises.
The cookies exercise really needs to be done in the stages I outlined. Otherwise your head will explode.

SOFT6007-EVCOM 06
We looked how an image can be sliced and put back together in a table to make a navigation bar. Students make their own, using either an image of their choice or the hand image to slice. Or use an image of your own.
We saw how to upload a webpage with images to a hosting service so that the rest of the world can see it. index.html. case sensitive!!!!
Some students who were catching up worked on imagemaps. That was unfortunate because some students got confused between slicing and imagemaps. That was my fault. I must make that clearer in future.
There will be an in-class assessment next Monday.

Repeat structure for COMP6023 Web Publishing
The assessment structure for the repeat of this module will be the same as the original assessment. The final mark will comprise three components.
Written Report 40%
Exam 30%
Project 30%
All students who received < 35% in this module must retake all three assessment components.
Students should submit a topic proposal to the lecturer for prior approval. Students may choose any course related topic but may not write a report on the same subject as their previous submission. Papers that are not approved in advance will receive zero marks. Submissions that contain any plagiarised content will receive zero marks.
Students will be advised of a time and location for the exam. This will take place during semester 2 (if all students agree to this).
[P.S. Students didn't want this. So it'll be in Sept]
Students may form groups with other repeating students or they may complete projects by themselves. Project proposals should be submitted to the lecturer for prior approval. Projects that are not approved in advance will receive zero marks. Students must start a new project. They may not re-use parts of their previous submissions. Students who wish to submit a group project must specify the composition of the group in the project proposal.
Repeat examinations normally take place in August and September. However if all students are in agreement, I am prepared to set deadlines in Semester 2. This will allow students to complete the repeat of this module in advance of the summer break.

The notes on imagemaps do not include the alt attribute. If an alt attribute is included in the area tag of an image map some browsers will display the text when the mouse hovers over the area.
area shape="rect" coords="200,100,300,150" alt="Connector"
