Task 3 – Web Page
Create, in your bhh folder, a web page called bhh.htm
This web page must be created using a single table and must work in all browsers. The table must fit 80% of the browser window. The table must have a structure as shown in this diagram:
A height = 20%
B width = 20% C width = 20% D width = 20% E width = 20% F width = 20% height = 20%
G H I J
K height = 40% L
Each table cell is identified with a letter. Some dimensions are shown. These must be set as percentage values and not in pixels.
The cell contents shown in the diagram must not appear on your final web page.
Table borders must not appear on the final web page.

Place in cell:
• A the image j2131logo.jpg
• B the image j2131bhh1.jpg
• C the image j2131bhh2.jpg
• D the image j2131bhh3.jpg

Open and edit the stylesheet j2131bhh.css to meet the following specifications:
Set the background for the web page so that it has a colour with a:
• blue component of 36
• red component of 21
• green component of 2f
Set the background for the web page so that the image j2131bg.png is placed in only the top left corner of the window.
Set the font for styles h1, h2, h3 and for the paragraph style, so that the browser selects and displays the font San Francisco. If this font is not available, the browser selects and displays the font Calibri. If neither of these fonts are available, the browser should display its default sans-serif font.
Set the paragraph style so the text is fully justified with a 12 point font.
Right align all tables in the browser window.
Add your name, centre number and candidate number as a comment at the end of the stylesheet.
All colour codes must be displayed in hexadecimal. Make sure that your stylesheet contains no
HTML or scripting language. Save this stylesheet in your bhh folder.
Take a screenshot to show the file name and all the contents of your stylesheet.

Task 5 – Data Analysis
You are going to use a spreadsheet to list properties in Bali that match the location and room type entered by the user.
Open and examine the files j2131home.csv and j2131rate.csv in a spreadsheet package.
Row 2 in the file j2131home.csv contains the location of the properties and rows 3 to 8 contain the names of properties. These files will be used to provide data for your spreadsheet and must not be changed.
Open and examine the file j2131list.csv in a spreadsheet package.
Data has been placed into cells B4 and B5 to help you test your model.
Place in the header, left aligned, the text List prepared by: followed by a space, your name, centre number and candidate number, then a space followed by on followed by a space and today’s automated date.
Save this as a spreadsheet with the file name j2131bhh_centre number_candidate number, for example, j2131bhh_ZZ999_9999

Checked your answers against these? Let AI mark the whole paper, on your own working.
Examiners follow the generic marking principles at the front of the scheme, then each question's points: method (M), accuracy (A) and independent (B) marks, error carried forward where the scheme allows it, and positive marking, so you're credited for what you got right.
Check your answers against it
