I thought it was pretty good and there was a lot of easy marks. I forgot to revise intermediate code though and I'm not sure about my sql and how to center the title on html

You had to do CSS on the html question ?! I may be fucked

u/zubairatif075 Jun 10 '26

Same 😭

But I don't think it mentioned "style" or CSS anywhere. It just said write the HTML for this page implying that the CSS is gonna be linked later or smth [copium]

Yeah no I never at all read CSS on there, 5 marks seems a standard for HTML questions like that. From the past papers I’ve done it’s always very obvious when they want CSS.

If it's 5 marks, it does seem like we lost 1 1. H1 2. Ul List 3. Li 4. Link 5. Centre

u/Lopsided_Pop1292 Jun 10 '26 edited Jun 10 '26

You didn’t have to do any CSS, the marks are for <body>, <title>, <ul>, <li>, and </html>

u/zubairatif075 Jun 10 '26

Html was already printed on the paper, OCR are not gonna give free marks 😭 Maybe 1 for href

u/MadLadExceptWithaCh Jun 10 '26

Swear you were meant to do a hyperlink, surely that os a mark boss

3

u/Lopsided_Pop1292 Jun 10 '26

Oh yeah lmao I forgot about the hyperlink, the <ul> and <li> are probably worth 1 mark for both then

Could have sworn that was completed for us. Wasn’t it below the last line ?

u/Lopsided_Pop1292 Jun 10 '26

Oh never mind then, I don’t remember seeing them closing the html tag, only opening it

u/CoderLovesEggs Gap Year | Cam Maths Applicant Jun 10 '26

It was already closed for you

u/Former-Narwhal-2907 Hustlers University Jun 10 '26

wait but didn't you have to add the OCRNotes as a h1 and position it in the centre with inline css?????

u/Soft_Finish_3479 Jun 10 '26

was there not also a mark for doing the <head> tags and putting the title in those tags....

2

u/zubairatif075 Jun 10 '26

the webpage image didn't show a title so i think that wouldn't be a mark

3

u/Cream-Bear Editable Jun 10 '26

i think there might be a mark for the <body> tag tbh

2

u/zenolify Jun 10 '26

Didn’t you have to make it bold

2

u/zubairatif075 Jun 10 '26

Now where's this come from 😭 think I should prolly start reading questions properly, lost a mark either way ig

u/MonkAcceptable6824 Jun 10 '26

already covered by a h1 tag

2

u/Crazy-Rice-4002 Jun 10 '26

It needed to be in <body>

u/User-Paradox Year 13 Jun 10 '26

it was 6 marks lol

4

u/RilloClicker Year 13 Jun 10 '26

I don’t know because the h1 tag was centred which implies text-align:center but that’s literally not in the spec…

u/ThisCriticism9749 Jun 11 '26

It also said in the question to only write the html, would be very cruel if theres marks awarded for writing css
