Web Design
ENG 330


Final project

Organization/Commercial Web sites

Commercial or organization Web sites are due online as of Monday, May 6. The recommended URL is of the form: http://www.lasalle.edu/~smithj1/final/
E-mail me your site URL, and indicate in that e-mail where your form, JavaScript and the animated GIF can be found. For your site you should follow the project management process for a business or organization, which can be hypothetical. For those choosing an organization, non-profits or college groups will work well. The sites should include a minimum of 300 words (carefully edited) dispersed over 6-8 Web pages, and must include the following:

  • text/content;
  • at least 5 still images;
  • a form page with action specified that is built in a table or uses CSS floats
  • CSS layout divs that you can code, or that come from the Dreamweaver CSS starter pages (not the templates); this time the CSS must be linked/external
  • color (background and/or text);
  • font size and family manipulation done in CSS
  • relative links (for site navigation);
  • at least 5 absolute links;
  • at least 1 mailto: link;
  • at least one page affected by JavaScript (rollovers, validation, last updated, jQuery, etc.)
  • a brief explanation of the sources of text and graphics somewhere on the site
  • animated .gif;
  • Optional: the following meta tag in the <head> element: <meta name="robots" content="no index, no follow" /> if you don't want your site crawled
  • Optional: an image map*;

Remember to:

  • make sites consistent;
  • make sites predictable;
  • use a design grid (to make content easily navigable);
  • use white space effectively;
  • consider screen width and "printability";
  • make pages work individually as well as within the site.

Finally ...

Make all sites grammatically and mechanically correct!

Due date: Monday, May 6. E-mail me the URL and tell me where you have JavaScript and the animated GIF, and where your form is.
