| The webpage generator is a tool that is meant to be
used by computer novices to create personal webpages.
The interface was designed so anyone with basic
knowledge of using a web browser could generate a page
of their own. The generated code is hidden from the user
until the final step where they can look at it if they
wish. This is so that users who are trying to learn how
to write their own sites from scratch can look at some
well-documented code. Every page that is generated has
extensive comments to make it easy to flow through the
source. Of course, no user is forced to interact with
the source code directly if they do not want to.
To add to the usefulness of the project, users are
also assigned a page ID and password. This information
allows them to log back in at a later date to make any
changes to page. The edit interface is very similar to
the initial design interface, complete with the
user-friendly drop downs and text fields for the various
variables. |
