Creating a Web Page - HTML Language

BASIC STRUCTURE - HTML TUTORIAL LINKS

Learning the HTML Language

When I started I thought all you did was just type what you wanted on a page, cut and paste on some pictures and then you had a Web page...well, then I found out it wasn't quite like that at all.
Below is how I managed to finally work out how to do it.

HTML What???....that is how I felt when I discovered you use the Hyper Text Mark-up Language to write a Web page. So I thought (being as unknowledgeable about the subject as any newbie would be...) I must find somewhere to learn about how this is done! Using my 'Search Engine' skills I tapped and surfed away until I found some sites that I could understand. Okay, you have your EDITOR, now it is time to learn how to write HTML and understand what you can do with it.

Basic Structure of a Document using HTML

	This tells the Browser that this is the *START* of the Web Page.
	The start of the *HEADER* of your Web Page.
</FONT></TD> <TD><FONT FACE="arial, verdana" SIZE="2">The <B><I>TITLE</I></B> (name) of your Web Page (eg: if you look at the very top of your browser you can see the title 'Creating a Web Page - HTML', or if viewing in Frames you can see 'Welcome to the Front Door').</FONT></TD></TR> <TR> <TD><FONT COLOR="red" FACE="arial, verdana">	The *END* of the title name.
	The *END* of the Header.
	The *START* of what you are going to put on your page. Find out about the Body tag.
	The *END* of what you have on your page.
	The *END* of the Web Page.

Everything else you want to put on your page goes between the and tags.

I hope that helps you with a little bit of a basic understanding of how a Web Page is constructed. When you learn many of the 'tags'(eg:'< BODY >) that you can use to format your text on your documents, the authoring becomes fun.
