Project #3

HTML is the programming language behind all web pages and is very useful to know. Now that you have that background knowledge it is
important to explore some of the other ways to create web pages. Front Page is popular software used to create web pages. Front Page
is also available in our classroom.

There are also three general types of web pages personal, business, and informational. You
have already created a personal and business web page.

Therefore, to complete Project #3 you will use Front Page to create a research based,
informational web page.
