Then use the sidebar and click on ‘X-Files’ and make your link review page.

3. You’ll need to send Mr R 3 photos. To actually be able to see the photos, we need to work on our web page ‘mike.html’ putting in ‘photo1.jpg’ in place of those ‘ventura.jpg’ photos.

Also, write in the captions for the three photos.

4. Search for 5 good links to your topic with (a) address or URL (b) short title (c) short comment on the site

5. We’ll also need some text put into our website.

Read – Edit – Add a note – and click on Attachments for photos and/or a background.
