IT Home Page Creation Form

This document is in experimental stages. It will take a long time to load on some machines.

This page will help you create a very basic IT home page. Although the result will be a page that is complete, you may want to add additional coding to personalize the page for your specific needs.

A similar page for general non-IT use will be in the works soon.

When you have finished filling in all the fields below click the "Save HTML Source" or the "View Rendered HTML" button.

Your Name

Enter your full name as you would like it to appear in the finished page's footer.

Document Title

The title will show up in the title bar of your browser. Picking an appropriate title for your page is very important. Some search engines search through document titles exclusively.

Heading

This text will display at the top of your page in a large font. It is typically the same as the document title, but does not have to be. Headings come in sizes from 1 to 6 with one being largest and six being smallest. The top heading will be size 1, the second will be size 2.

IT Logo

Integrated Technologies has developed several IT logos for use on official IT pages. Select one with your favorite color combination.

Introduction

This will be your introductory paragraph. If you already know how, you may include valid HTML. You may also create multiple paragraphs if you just keep typing.

Expiration Date

An expiration date is useful if you know that your page may need future revisions. Web crawlers such as MOMspider can search a web site and notify maintainers of expired documents if you include this data.

Enter your URL

This is the World Wide Web address of your home page. As an IT page it will look something like: http://www.iupui.edu/ithome/file.html This information will go into the footer so users who print your page will know where it came from.
