5. XHTML structure
The theme is comprised of 4 standard pages: Home: The first page of the theme contains a slider which, thanks to a javascript Coda Slider, enables the user to flip through your latest products/works. About: section in which you can introduce yourself and talk about your work experience; Portfolio: page in which you can insert miniatures of your works: by using the javascript light box, clicking on a miniature will open a larger, more detailed image. Contacts: this page contains a functional contact form and, in the section on the right side, you can insert your contact information.

6. Css
The file includes six css files: Ie.css Ie6.css Screen.css Print.css 960.css project.css Project.css is the stylesheet for the homepage slider. Screen.css is the main stylesheet that contains the styles, colors, formatting, etc. for all pages. Ie.css and Ie6.css contain the style conversions for Internet Explorer. These browsers incorrectly interpret some html elements and these css files enable the correction of some of these imperfections. The file 960.css is a css framework and print.css is a stylesheet for page printing.

As seen in the image, in these lines of code you can: 1. Modify the project title; 2. Modify the project description; 3. Modify the project image. The class screenshot gives the image a background, rather a shadowed photo effect. The class widePreviewImg is linked to the FancyZoom javascript and provides an animated display of the larger image when a user clicks on the miniature.
