Assignment 11

due Tue 10 Dec

For this assignment, use Warp and Blaze HTML to create a small web site that responds to four types of pages:

/ : the home page
/about : an about page
/user/ID : a user profile page, where the ID can be any identifier, like /user/league or /user/1234.
Any other path should produce a 404 “Not found” response.

All four pages should have a common navigation bar that provides links to all pages. (You can just make up what user ID to use – we don’t have an authentication mechanism yet.)

The user profile page should display whatever ID is in the URL, so /user/league could say something like Hello, league but /user/1234 would say Hello, 1234.

Include some content such as an image, list, hyperlinks, etc.
