January 2007 course comments

The Godiva website at www.chriswheal.co.uk was set up this week to help show students on the National Union of Journalists' (NUJ's) writing for the web course concerns when writing web copy.
Some things to comment on include:


  • Are the pages you have to scroll as easy to read as those you don't?

  • Do all the pages stand alone ?

  • What other subjects could the story link to?

  • Are there missing details - such as how much the Heregald tax cost - and are they important?


Please do make any other comments on the site too.

We showed how to open an external website link in a new window.
The normal code needs the suffix -the target attribute and its value - telling the browser to open a blank window. The suffix is target="_blank">.
So, the first example will open in the existing window but the second version will pen in a new window:
<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk">

<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk" target="_blank">
