Creating Links |
(This One really does come in handy) |
Ok you want to create a link, easy enough. The first thing you need is the URL you want to link to. For this I will use the URL for the Html Help Homepage (www.oocities.org/surrounded_alone/HtmlHelp.html) |
All you have to do is type the following. <h1><a href="http://www.oocities.org/surrounded_alone/HtmlHelp.html">Homepage</a href> At this point I will tell you that the <h1> tag is not neccessary, all it does it put the link on a new line! of course the URL is to my homepage, but you use the URL you want. The word Hompage, is where the link will be placed. the </a href> bit at the end is very important! If you don't add the </a href> bit at the end you will have BIG problems, that is so the page knows to end the link after the word(s) you choose. If you don't add it on the end everything from there on will be that one link and you don't want that lol. |
So you know the link above would look like this: Homepage with the word homepage as the link. |
If you have any Problems and would like to contact me, please use the form on the Html Help homepage! |

Backgrounds |
Ok this one is fairly simple, first you need the image to be online in a storage place. I generally use a yahoo group (formally e-groups) or tripod as a stroage space. Upload the image you wish to use into this storage area. Once loaded you need to know the URL of the image, to find this right click over the uploaded image and select Properties, it should tell you the full URL. |
In most cases the URL would be, "http://site_url/Image_name.jpg" This is basically all you need, now the html is simple - which would look like this: <body background="http://site_url/Image_name.jpg"> very simple :) |
