TIPS
1. To refresh your memory of HTML, go to http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp. The “read about

2. Watch and follow along the step-by-step video help on Bb. Save them to your hard drive first.
3. Do not use spaces in file names or folder names.
4. If you see squiggly lines underneath your code, usually that indicates errors. Fix them before continuing.
5. View the page in browser often to make sure the code is correct.
