Building a Resume Website - Adding Content
Now it's time to add some content!
When to use
Once you rough out the skeleton HTML of the page, you can add your own content.
Instructions
Add your own resume content to the page.
Be sure to space it out with <br/> line break tags inside the <p> and </p> tags of your job descriptions.

Hints & tips
- If you have an image of your school logo, add it!
- Align your job descriptions with an align="justify" tag.
- 00:05 Okay, so we're moving right along now.
- 00:06 It's time to add in some of our content.
- 00:09 So just very quickly I'm going to, one at a time here,
- 00:13 copy this and head back to our resume section.
- 00:18 Now, right here, I'm gonna give this a strong,
- 00:23 paste that in there and, a line break.
- 00:26 And gonna copy this stuff, And
- 00:32 just bear with me here while I let's see grab a date and
- 00:36 we'll just do one or two of these to show.
- 00:39 Now, if we save this and hit reload, okay that's starting to come along but
- 00:43 it doesn't quite look the same.
- 00:45 You'll notice over here this is all like square.
- 00:49 Right? It all lines up, and this is emphasized.
- 00:53 So we can do that we can change that.
- 00:55 The easiest thing is to wrap the date in an em tag.
- 01:00 We looked at that tag earlier.
- 01:02 You know that does Italicize.
- 01:04 So we paste that and save.
- 01:05 Boom. Okay.
- 01:06 But now, how do we make this stuff flush?
- 01:09 Well, for that, I'm gonna wrap this in a <p> tag.
- 01:14 So save this.
- 01:15 Paste </p>.
- 01:16 Let's look at it.
- 01:17 And it bumped it all up a little bit but it's still not flush.
- 01:20 So how do we fix that?
- 01:21 Well, pretty easy.
- 01:23 We give this an align=justify.
- 01:28 And justify that's what it does, it pulls this text apart and
- 01:32 it makes it sort of all flush together like that.
- 01:34 So that was pretty simple.
- 01:36 And if we look at this, we see da da da,
- 01:40 actually let's go ahead and put this on its own thing.
- 01:49 Just to kinda look at this.
- 01:51 So here, we have each sort of individual thing.
- 01:54 And if we copy this, And
- 01:58 just paste it underneath there and save it, let's see what we got here.
- 02:04 Not bad but we're gonna want.
- 02:07 Let's give this a couple line breaks as well between each of these little sections.
- 02:14 Actually, line breaks need to go right at the,
- 02:19 oops at the end of the, P text.
- 02:24 So like right here.
- 02:27 Save that, boom bops it down.
- 02:30 Okay, good.
- 02:30 So, real quickly, I'm just gonna copy this and.
- 02:36 Come back and paste that.
- 02:38 This is the most boring part of the whole thing, I'm sure, but let's see.
- 02:45 And be sure to, at the end, put a couple of line breaks.
- 02:50 And then finally the date, 2013- 2014.
- 02:56 Boom, save this.
- 02:59 Okay, so that's coming right along.
- 03:02 I'm gonna go ahead and once this is done, field and the rest of these,
- 03:05 you don't have to stare at me doing this this whole time.
- 03:07 But I wanted to show you at least two to show you how to do the line breaks
- 03:10 at the end of this text right here and right here.
- 03:13 I think it's nice to have white space.
- 03:14 It kinda keeps things separated nicely.
- 03:17 Before we go, I wanna add this education section.
- 03:20 So I've got this image and I'm gonna pull it in,
- 03:23 like we've pulled in other things, I'm gonna add it to the images section.
- 03:28 And if we come down to our education section,
- 03:33 I'm just gonna pop in the code for our image,
- 03:37 use the img tag, src=images/washu.png, okay?
- 03:43 And then for stuff, just paste in my content.
- 03:50 And give this a line break, and a line break.
- 03:59 Two line breaks, okay.
- 04:03 And I wanna wrap these two in em tags.
- 04:11 Save this, reload, ooh that is huge so
- 04:16 let's come back to our image and give it a Height = 250.
- 04:24 Save this guy.
- 04:25 Hit reload.
- 04:25 Much better. So, I don't really like this spacing, so
- 04:29 let's change this from a two to a one.
- 04:33 Much better, so there we go.
- 04:35 Just that easy.
- 04:35 So go ahead and fill out the rest of this stuff with whatever you've got and
- 04:40 in the next video, we'll work on making this mobile responsive so
- 04:43 it looks good on cellphones and tablets and things like that.
