**************** OTHER CLASS NOTES *******************
Hello Elvia:
For problem 11 I added the homepage.htm page to the root directory and then created an "images" directory. I copied classproject.gif to this images directory and it worked. I tried to set up the "mastering" directory but couldn't get the webpage to display properly. I hope this way is ok. Any questions please let me know.
Many thanks,
Doug
