Resume (Assignment #9)

State The Problem:
	I need to prepare a resume with HTML coding and put in on my webpage that 
	I have with IUPUI. I also need to write a STAIR on how I went about to create
	the resume. Both are due on March  9 by midnight.

Tools:
	Brain: I need to think on how to find background image, background music,
	and banner.	
	Computer: I need to use my computer to find a resume that I have already
	prepared  in order to copy my information to notepad.
	Notepad: I need notepad to copy the resume information from my file to it and
	write my HTML codes. I also need to write the STAIR on a seperate file.
	Books: I will use the class textbook and another HTML book that I bought.
	lecture and Notes: I will listen to the lectures on HTML and related subtopics
	and read the notes of Andy Harris for finding the codes I need.
	Communication Software 3.5: I need to use this software to FTP my file to the
	server.

Algorithm: 
	My plan is to read the books and notes and listen to the lectures and then
	take my computer and start creating my resume on the notepad. Once I write
	the text and the codes then I will seacrh on the Internet for background image 
	and sound and also I will create a banner from Flamingtext.com. After I create
	all this in notepad I will test it on Internet Explorer and Netscape to see if
	everytihng is working as I want them to. Finally I will transfer both files 
	(resume and stair) through FTP to the server.

Implementation:
	I read the chapters on the books about HTML, listened to the lectures and
	looked at the notes on the web. Then I used the file that I had my resume 
	and transfered the text into the notepad. I put the HTML coding to arrange
	how the text will look on the page. I searched for background image, sound,
	and I created a banner from Flamingtext.com. I added all these to the notepad
 	and then tested the page. Problem occured with the background music. I could 
	hear it on IE but not on Netscape. I went back to the books and experimented
	with all the different options that they suggested to do in order to add a 
	background sound.  It didn't work. So, I emailed my instructor for help.
	The same afternoon of the day I emailed for help I checked my webpage
	and I found out that "miracolously" the background sound was working.
	So, I emailed the instructor again and informed her of the change. 
	Problem solved. Then, through FTP, I transferred both files to the server.

Refinement:
	It took me a long time to create the banner at Flamingtext.com because I chose
	a colorful one and the colors were in random order. So, I had to wait a long time
	to find the colors I liked since I had no control over them. It was frustrating.
	next time I may choose another banner type or look for another website
	that offers free banners.
