Master Tables Project

Time frame: 2 days

The goal of this project is to create master tables for every page of your personal website. A master table is a table that contains every object on your web page. This includes text, images, nested tables (tables that sit inside of another table) and everything else. Absolutely nothing should be sitting outside of the master table.

• For the purposes of this project, your table must be invisible. (Border value of 0).
• You may have to merge cells or split cells to achieve the design results you want.
• You may add additional tables within your master table if your design calls for it.
• NOTHING should appear outside the table. Not a word, not a picture, not a graphic. EVERYTHING goes in the master table.
• Rows, columns, and individual cells can have their own color formatting. Demonstrate your ability to use these features by creating tables that use color formatting. Do not have all of your cells the same color.
• I have included basic instructions, and then more advanced instructions. If you haven't worked out a more advanced design yet, use the basic instructions. You are free to alter the advanced instructions to suit your design.

Simple Instructions:

• Open your home page (index.html).
• Click at the top left of the page.
• Create a new table (Ctrl+Alt+T)
• In the Table dialog box that opens, fill in:
  • Rows: 3
  • Columns: 1
  • Table Width: 500 pixels
  • Border thickness: 0
  • In the top row, cut and paste your Page Title
  • In the second row, cut and paste your navigation
  • In the third row, cut and paste your text.
  • Format the color for your new table. Use the colors that you are already using in your color scheme. Look at your page properties for details (modify>page properties
