- It's time for our third challenge…and this time we're going to make…a custom form for the Landon Hotel.…I've added two items to our room service menu table…that's in the Landon Hotel challenge start database…in your chapter eight folder of the Exercise Files.…I'd like you to build a form around this data…in order to view and add new menu items to the database.…I'd encourage you to be creative with the layout…and practice using the various form controls…that we've seen to enhance the form's design.…Getting used to placing and fine tuning the arrangement…of your form controls is an essential skill…that only gets easier with practice.…
So take your time and create a form…that expresses your unique take on the data entry process.…I suggest that you spend about 10 minutes on this challenge…and I'll see you on the other side.…
