One source of free clip art is http://dgl.microsoft.com/.) Right-click the image and save it to the same folder where your Web page is located. Insert the photos in your HTML document to the left of each cookie name. Note: You may have to create a table for your images to appear correctly.

you haven’t created yet called “orderform.htm,” which you’ll save to the same folder as Cameron Cookies.

– Link “Contact Us” to the e-mail address cookiemaster@cameroncookies.com.
– Link “Place an Order” to the page “orderform.htm.”

Your Web page should look similar to Figure 7. You’re now finished with the index.htm page.
Creating Your Other Pages
1. Copy your index.htm page and save it as “about.htm.” You’re going to use some elements of the main page in all your other pages, so you don’t have to retype them.

Their cookies were so popular that Bill and Laura had to expand their business, and in 1996 they moved to their current location in Portland, Maine. Cameron Cookies continues to sell off the shelves. Visitors to Maine drive out of their way to sample these wonderful, rich cookies that they’ve heard so much about. We hope to see you soon! Bill and Laura
