Just for a good example, the above tag wouldn't work
right, why........#$@$ quotation marks on the color
code!!!!!! Told ya so. Always double check it.
HTML CODES
First of all, don't let the idea of programming languages
scare you. To put you mind at ease, most computer people
don't even consider HTML a language! Thats how easy it
is.
I'm not going to get very detailed about HTML for
the simple reason that people like Draac (see more about
him and his site in SPECIAL THANKS) offer "classes" on HTML
and some JAVA SCRIPT (thats the "language" that made all
those cool pop-up boxes you have seen along the way).
The most important thing I can tell you is the old computer
addage.....GARBAGE IN, GARBAGE OUT. I'm speaking from
experience here folks!
I wrote all the pages you have
seen and will see. There were many times I wanted to shoot
this darn thing....why????? Because I forgot something so stupid
as a quotation mark. Yes my friends, it is something you
have to be precise at.
After a while, I quit getting
frustrated and learned that if it isn't working right, I
forgot something!!!!!! After getting past that, now if
something didn't work right, I take a deep breath and go
back and take a careful look at it. The best thing to
remember is when something doesn't work right, look for the
last part that IS working right, then look at the very next
line. Sure enough friends, you will usually find the
mistake on the very next line.....usually stupid quotation
marks or a dash, something simple!
Now that we have that
out of the way, take some time to go see a basic HTML
course at Draacs by clicking here....or continue on to see
examples of Web Pages you can
build.
SAMPLE PAGES
The following pages are set up for you to use and abuse. I
am NOT an HTML genius. I only bought my WebTV in late Aug.
98 and started this homepage in Sept. 98. I had NO
knowledge of HTML prior to that. Everything I am doing
here, I learned from great people like Draac and others.
If I can do this, so can you!
If you use your SEARCH
engine, type in HTML, you will find plenty of sites that
will offer all types of information on HTML.
OK, enough
chatter. The three following simple sample web pages
include the HTML codes for you to TRANSLOAD to your own
"HOME". You can change them any way you desire to make the
page your own personal page. REMEMBER, I created these
with "simpleness" in mind.
At the bottom of each page,
you will find a URL addy. Click on that to see the code
used for the page. The only thing missing will be the
URL's. You will need to fill them in according to how you
set up your FILE MANAGER on your "HOME" site.
Well, if you are ready, click on my little friend below to proceed.
Congratulations, you have stuck in this far, don't stop
now!
