I have found a cheaper, more available way for you to write HTML, but it does not do any of it automatically. You will have to learn how to start the page and add the color coding. This is just something you can cut and paste into place once you have the first copy made. Before we go any farther, just in case you do not know how to cut and paste, here is the directions. Find the material you want to move or copy to a new location. With the right mouse button, click on the first letter of the material, and drag the mouse over the material. This will highlight it. Make sure everything is highlighted. Now, release the mouse, and go to Edit at the top of the screen. Click on it and go to Copy if you want to simply copy the material, or Cut if you want to remove it and put it somewhere else. Now, go to the location where you want the material to appear. Place the cursor in the exact spot where you want the material. Click. Now go back to Edit, and go to Paste. Click on it, and the material will appear in the new location. You can do this with any material you find in e-mail, on the internet, reports, or anywhere. Some material is Copy only, but all of it can be moved. I attached a file to this letter (click HERE to view the file I attached). It is a sample of a page of code made for you. It shows all the coding lessons I have given you so far and how to put them together to create a page. If you click on the attachment, you will see the page, and see the instructions I have written on it. If you look at the code, you will see how it was created. You can do this with any page you lift from the internet, also. To look at the code, I found you a method which is included in Netscape. Since you do not have the file as an attachment, first, lift the page as I told you in an earlier letter. Then, Go to Start, Programs, Accessories, Notepad and open Notepad. Now, Go to File and Open, and click on the sample I just sent you. This will open the code version of the page. I have discovered that you can write HTML code using the Notepad program. When you are ready to save your finished document, just be sure to Click on File, Save As, and then enter the name of your file as thename.html If you add .html after the file name, it will save it as an html file rather than a text file.
