HRs Using Tables


If for some reason HRs aren't available on the platform you are writing for, then you can improvise a little. Here are some solutions which will produce horizontal lines without the use of the HR tag.

  1. Make a line separater using dashes or asterisks
  2. Use a long, thin graphic image
  3. Use a table
  4. Use the DIV tag
In this assignment you will practice using the last of these options.

Consider this collection of HRs created using tables:

ASSIGNMENT:

Notice that the last example actually had words in it. Often it makes sense for your line separater (or horizontal rule) to have words in it and so in this assignment you will do it both ways: with and without words.

Actually, you will only make one without words. That one will be at the bottom of the page. The other eight will be spread out up and down the page. The top one will contain a page title (something like: Anort High School Lunch Menu). The other seven will have the day of the week in a slightly smaller font than that used for the title. Under each "HR" (aka TABLE) will be the lunch menu for that day. Each lunch should contain at least four items, but no more than six items.
