I’m not familiar of how page structures work, but since I watched the video on Lynda and looked into Fontanella’s example I’m beginning to understand the idea behind it. The most challenging part of this assignment was that I have to find what all the parts are. To solve this, I went to Firefox, opened up the source code and I found the div tables and nav panels within the page. The most difficult part was figuring out the properties of the “Recommended” section. I could not tell if the tables in that section are centered because the amount of text that takes up some space. There were few empty spaces in this page so I couldn’t name properties but group them with the content next to them. gc.palomar.edu/34634/34634wbrewster3897/page%20structure.html

You did a good job blocking out the major structural parts of the page. It does get complicated. I looked at this page and the source code. There is a lot that is driven by javascript, to it is hard to follow.
The recommended section does not have tables, though. It's all div's. More than likely, it's data driven (the content is added from a database.)
You didn't have to figure out what they did, though. There are really many approaches to building almost any page. I just wanted you to start looking at pages, and see where the major divisions are so that you'd have an idea of how to start and create something like that. Since Web pages are pretty much built with rectangular blocks, it gets you used to seeing those within a page. You did fine.
