Assigned: March 17, 1999
Due: April 1, 1999
I'm sure that all of you have used the World-Wide Web. Web pages are written
in a language called HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language). Your programming
assignment lets you work with simple HTML files. Display a main menu of
options from which the user may select again and again in any order. If the
user doesn't select a correct option, make the user select again.
The options are as follows:
1. Given the name of a text file, with the following format,
name of word/place at most 50 characters, terminated by \n
description at most 100 characters, terminated by \n
construct a set of Web pages corresponding to them.
You will need to build a binary search tree from the entries to help
in constructing the set of Web pages.
The Web pages will have the following format:
name of word/place centered and in bold text
the description in a paragraph
a picture corresponding to the word
a link to the parent file, if present
links to the children files, if present
You will also need to create a root Web page, which has a link to the
Web page corresponding to the item stored in the root of the tree.
2. Quit the program.
