Specs

  1. mark up the text in the html file (modified from wikipedia) with the appropriate tags
    • the submission must pass html validation
  2. tell the html file to use the provided css file
  3. make the page look like the provided image, specifically:
    1. The main text has a width of 50rem.
    2. the figures have a width of 43rem.
    3. The main text and figures are centered horizontally in the page.
    4. The margin notes have a width of 12.5rem.
    5. The margin notes are “anchored” against their containing paragraphs.
    6. The margin notes have a bg color of ๐Ÿ‘ (#BABABA ๐Ÿ˜‚).
    7. The margin notes have a text size of 0.75rem.
    8. The gap between the main text and the margin notes is 1rem.
    9. remove the placeholder style that makes the page awful (but totally helps ensure you’ve told the html file to use the css file)
    10. captions for the images should have a text size of 0.5rem.
