I gave a bit of a pep talk.

We will have an in-class written exam on Tuesday 28 October at 1100. In class I said that was worth 40%. But it's actually 20% of the final mark.

We looked at image maps.

I gave students a printed version of iberia.jpg. The image file is available from the notes page over there ---->

Some students hadn't even started the timetable. That's very worrying.

I asked student to watch a video about image maps.

I talked a little bit about Assessment 2.

We looked at the Mr. SpudHead example. That included the visible property.

I introduced the topic of user input validation using JavaScript. We will continue with this in the next lecture.  I gave out a handout on checksums. Students who didn't get a paper copy can download it.
