   |  |  Requirements 
and Tips for Your HTML Presentations

 
  
The final version of your presentation must be installed in your 
RHIT AFS account, although you may develop your presentation elsewhere if you 
like. Make sure that your website files are self-contained, meaning that every 
HTML and non-HTML file in your website must show up in the top-level 
subdirectory or below. The top-level HTML file (entry point to your website) 
must be called ‘index.htm’.
Make a directory called 'ece481'. Make 
subdirectories for each miniproject (e.g., 'miniproj5') and place all files 
pertaining to the project in that directory.
 Consider
subdirectories as a way to organize your files, e.g., ‘html’, ‘sounds’, 
and ‘images’.
Strive to make effective use of hyperlinks in your HTML documents. A good 
rule of thumb is to use at most about two or three screenfuls of 
information at a time.
Sound files can be 
included in your web page simply by establishing a hyperlink to the appropriate 
.wav file. 
I recommend Microsoft FrontPage for your website development tool. You 
can also use a page-oriented HTML editor such as Netscape Composer (part of 
Netscape Communicator), but it will be more difficult to maintain a consistent 
look-and-feel this way.
If you hand-code your HTML documents, you must use relative 
addressing for all page and image links that are internal to your presentation 
(as opposed to absolute addressing). If you don’t understand this requirement, 
then ask! Rule of Thumb: The only time your should refer to a file using 
the http://host/filename convention is when the target file is not 
contained in the subdirectoy that contains your other files, for example, a link 
to another location external to your website.
The top-level page of your presentation shall contain the following 
minimum set of information: project title (must be descriptive of your specific 
project, not just a copy of the title of the lab handout), your name, course 
number and name, school name, date, and table of contents (links to the various 
sections of your presentation), and hyperlink to your email address. Include 
both team member addresses (e.g., use 
"mailto:member1@rose-hulman.edu,member2@rose-hulman.edu").
MATLAB figure windows can be saved to PNG-format images as follows (you could 
also use JPEG format; see MATLAB help for 'imwrite' for details): 
   x = getframe(gcf);	% from current figure
x = getframe(3);	% from a specific figure (e.g., figure 3) figure			% make a new figure
imshow(x.cdata);	% verify that figure was captured OK
imwrite(x.cdata,'__.png')	% save figure image to a PNG file
 You may wish to make a function 
  based on the above code to save time later on.
