After this tutorial you should be able to make a simple web page, only using Windows Notepad.

First we'll concentrate on the basic parts of every webpage. The first part of a page is the opening

<body> tag. Tags are made with the litte angle brackets. The next part of the web page is the the head tag which almost always includes the title tag, and many more advanced things. This is what it looks like: <head> <title>My First Page</title> </head> This should be fairly easy so far.
The next tag is the body tag, which will include something new, which are called attributes. A basic Attribute is in this form name="value". Here's an example of a basic body tag: <body bgcolor="white" text="navy" link="red" vlink="slateblue"> Notice the four different attributes; bgcolor, text, link, and vlink.
