CPSCI 107: Applications, Implications, and Issues

Lab 4

Emacs

Today we'll modify your personal emacs configuration file, .emacs. Connect to warp and stay in your home directory. Open your .emacs file in emacs, and paste the contents from this sample .emacs file in the appropriate place. Then search the file for the string ‘!!your-name!!’ (without the quotes). The first occurrence will be inside an emacs-Lisp comment; you can delete that entire line. Replace the next occurrence (in an emacs-Lisp function) with your name.


XHTML

Last week we did some work with HTML. Today we'll discuss some differences between HTML and XHTML. To serve as a basis for discussion, here is the smallest possible valid XHTML file.

(If you take the previous link, you won't see anything. Why not?)

We'll also discuss validation. Here's a link to the W3C validator.
