What CS511 Assignment 1 asks
This assignment focuses on developing a university course registration webpage that includes a welcome banner, course cards, and a registration form. You will apply various CSS techniques to style these components, demonstrating proficiency in selectors and cascading behavior. The project requires you to structure the page using HTML and implement visual styling through an external CSS file. You must demonstrate specific selector types and explain the cascading logic within your code.
-
1
Element, Class, and ID Selectors
Use element selectors for headings and paragraphs, class selectors for course cards and descriptions, and an ID selector for the welcome banner. Ensure these selectors are applied consistently throughout the webpage structure.
-
2
Attribute Selectors
Style form inputs using attribute selectors such as input[type="text"] and input[type="email"]. Additionally, use an attribute selector to style registration links that open in a new tab.
-
3
Pseudo Selectors
Implement :hover effects on buttons or navigation links and use :nth-child() to highlight the second course card. You must also use the ::after pseudo-element to add decorative content after section headings.
-
4
Contextual Selectors
Apply descendant or child selectors to target elements within the course section. Use sibling selectors to style paragraphs that immediately follow a course heading.
-
5
CSS Cascading
Apply multiple CSS rules to the same element using a combination of element, class, and ID selectors. Include CSS comments that explain the specificity and why certain styles override others.
- What to submit
- One .zip or .rar file containing a folder with index.html and styles.css.
