SOFT6007 DWEB1 Class 35 & 36

We looked rollovers in JavaScript and the coins example. The important point is that in response to events on the page, code can be triggered that uses the DOM to modify the contents of the page after it has been drawn.

examples: rollover & coins

SOFT6007 Class 33

We looked at how to do a three column layout but circumstances conspired against us. May students were late, it took me a while to get the projector working, and then a wasp distracted us. Week 09 is always a bit strange anyway.

I have modified fancy4.html since class to accommodate HTML5's new header and footer tags. fancy5.html uses fixed width columns and a background to fake column backgrounds that go all the way down.
