3When one substitution key (such as the one in Figure 8.1) is used, the resulting system is called monoalphabetic. When two or more keys are used with some system for moving from one key to another, the system is called polyalphabetic. The most commonly used polyalphabetic cpher is called Vigenere's system. Vigenere's system was the main cryptographic method used by the Confederates during the American Civil War.

4.Create a Web page that has images on both sides of the page and has text flowing continuously between the images.
Add a sequence of left-justified images (at least 4 images) with text flowing along the right side of the images and with no text or blank lines separating the images along the left side of the page.
It is suggested that you download SeaMonkey (www.seamonkey-project.org) to help complete this exercise as it is covered in chapter 9 and is a fairly easy tool to use. If you have another web page tool or wish to code this yourself, you are free to do so.
This exercise will require a file for the Web page as well as a file for each of the images. Since you cannot save multiple files to a quiz answer, please email all of the files needed for this answer to me [email protected].
