FIT3084 : Effective Navigation

Create three HTML pages, each with different background, text, active link, visited link and unvisited link colours.

In choosing your colours ensure:

• The background is not 'hard on the eyes'.
• The text is easily read over the background.
• The links are clearly distinguishable from plain text.
• The user can tell when they have already followed a hyperlink.
• Visual feedback is provided when selecting a link. (How do you acheive this?)

On each page, place a heading and a line or two of text. (The content can be anything you like.)
Each page should also have a title placed within <TITLE> tags. Why is this needed if the page already has a heading?

Design and implement an effective means of accessing the three different pages sequentially using:

1. Standard hyperlink/anchors
2. Frames and a text-based table of contents
3. An image map
