Read the following case study and give reasons for asking certain question in relation to style sheets.
A school wishes to design a website. The function of this website is to let its students know when assignments are due, the dates of exams, timetables, subjects taught, syllabuses and the teachers who teach them.
The school wishes to have quality controls over the Web design, since the teachers themselves will be responsible for updating the information on the Web.
The school has approached you to advise them on how this may be possible.
The school wants you to explain the process you wish to use, and why it is better than letting every teacher write their own style.
Write a list of ten or more HTML tags and classes that may be used for the website. Consider the attributes that may have to be used, such as background colour, departmental style, tables (for timetable, exam, curriculum and annual), headers and so on.
After choosing the HTML tags, consider the CSS code required to style them.
Look at the end of the chapter for a discussion of this review question.
