You will need to ensure that your code validates. You can check your code at http://validator.w3.org. Your pages should declare the document type correctly in order for it to validate. I recommend xhtml 1.0.
You will need to ensure that the start of your xhtml files look like this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

SOFT6008 Spec updated
Following on from today's discussions, I updated the specification for the assignment so that the value of the various non-required features are firmer. Students who didn't get >40% in Assessment 1 will need more than 40% in assessment 2 in order to pass.
SOFT6007 Class 26 ITS1 Lab
I spent a little bit of time with students concerned about their assessment result.
Students worked away on Assessment 2. No many seem to be taking on JavaScript just yet.

SOFT6008 Class 26
We discussed the assessment. Students made some fair points.
We also discussed plagiarism at length and what is allowed an what is not.
I don't propose to put a recording of today's class online. But it doesn't seem right that only I should have a copy. If anyone wants a copy I can e-mail an mp3.

We looked at some more JavaScript. We saw loops, and rollovers, buttons, and getElementById.
There is no more JavaScript required to complete Assessment 2, whether it's an exam or a take-away exercise.

SOFT6008 Assessment 1 Results
The results for assessment 1 are now online. They are sorted by the last 4 digits of ID number. If there's only 3 it's because there's a leading zero.
I was disappointed by the results. They suggest that students are not as on top of things as I thought they were.
