Lab/Homework Assignment:

Here is an activity for you to sharpen your HTML and Applet writing skills:

Your TA will help you to Create a Web page of your own. To do this, create a file named index.html (you can rename FirstApplet.html file) and put it and the other files it uses in your public_html directory. Anyone can view your page by visiting the URL
http://www.cs.miami.edu/students/UserName

Make sure to include several links, an applet, and some fancy layout. You should include (modify?) the FirstApplet.java applet. Have fun. Please check out some of the links above to learn more about how to write HTML documents.

NOTE: Refresh button on most browsers do not reload a recompiled applet class file. There are several ways around this problem. You can close and open your browser (this works with Firefox), or you can use on the command line
appletviewer FirstApplet.html
Notice that you need to point to the corresponding HTML file.
