Content (Detail) Page Development
On a typical website, after users click on one of the links on the main (list) page, they can reach a content page with details of content (e.g., news articles, SNS posts, etc.). Usually, there is a standard template for content pages on each website.
The image below is the target design of the content page example. In this example, we are adding the following components on each chapter page.
- Top bar
- Back button (to the home page)
- Footer and bottom bar
We'll explain each step in the practice section below.
Practice 1
Objective:
Create a content page template
1. Create a new HTML file for the content page template
- Create a copy of the index.html file and change the name to chapter18.html.
- Change the
<title>section to Chapter 18. Completing Website Development. - Also, delete the existing content of the
<body>element that was created in the previous practice. - The code should look like the one below.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<!--Google Font-->
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com">
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" crossorigin>
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto:ital,wght@0,100;0,300;0,400;0,500;0,700;0,900;1,100;1,300;1,400;1,500;1,700;1,900&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
<!--Custom CSS-->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/practice.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/component.css">
<title>Chapter 18. Completing Website Development</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
2. Add a content area
As we don't have any content for the chapter18.html file, add a free note section so that you can add your notes for your learning purposes. These are the HTML and CSS codes to create the note section.
<h1>Chapter 18. Creating Websites</h1>
<p class="note-section"> Add any note here in HTML code for your practice.</p>
/* Note */
.note-section{
border: solid 1px #2197A2;
width: 80%;
min-height: 50vh;
padding:10px;
margin: auto;
}
3. Add components
We'll add the following components as a standard template for content pages (one page for one chapter).
- Top bar
- Back button (to the home page)
- Footer and bottom bar
As we have created each component in the previous practices, you can just copy and paste them into the chapter18,.html file. No need to update the CSS files.
For the previous and next buttons, add file paths to chapter17.html and chapter19.html respectively.
To make each section clear, add comments in the beginning and end of each section.
<body>
<!--Top bar-->
<div class="top-bar" style="text-align: center; background-color: white">
<a href="index.html" class="top-bar-icon">
<img src="img/html5.png" />

</a>
</div>
<!--End top bar-->
<!--Main-->
<h1>Chapter 18. Creating Websites</h1>
<p class="note-section">Add any note here in HTML code for your practice.</p>
<!--End Main-->
<!--Back button-->
<div style="display: flex; justify-content: center; padding-top: 30px; padding-bottom: 80px">
<a href="index.html" class="btn-small">Back</a>
</div>
<!--End back button-->
<!--Footer-->
<footer>
<div class="btn-group">
<a href="chapter17.html" class="btn-previous">←</a>
<a href="chapter19.html" class="btn-next">→</a>
</div>
<p>HTML & CSS Introduction</p>
</footer>
<!--End footer-->
</body>

Objective:
Replicate the template in all content pages (from Chapter 1 to Chapter 19)
1. Create new HTML files for the missing chapter files
At this moment, you don't have chapter1.html and chapter19.html. As there is no specific practice content for Chapter 1 and Chapter 19, create a note section by replicating the chapter18.html file created in the previous practice.
Create two copies of the chapter18.html file and change the name to chapter1.html and chapter19.html.
Change the <title> section to Chapter 1. Completing Website Development and 19. Publishing Websites.
Also, update the <h1> title to Chapter 1. Overview of Website Development and Chapter 19. Publishing Websites.
The code should be the same as the one in chapter18.html except for the titles.
2. Add content page templates to the remaining chapters
As chapter2.html and chapter17.html don't yet have the components listed below, add them to each file.
- Top bar
- Back button (to the home page)
- Footer and bottom bar
When you add these components, make sure you replace the link for the previous and next buttons. The code below is an example for chapter2.html.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
