Building a web page
is a step-by-step process. No
one enters the world of web design training
automatically knowing HTML code
or any other design format unless
he/she is an absolute genius who invents
code out of the top of their head!
If you're a
beginner, relax. This series of HTML
tutorials will help you to become familiar
with HTML, and you'll feel comfortable
putting together your own web pages
in no time.
What
You'll Need for This Tutorial
*Notepad
Notepad is a
writing pad on your computer system which allows
you to create files
in plain text
format (with no add-in codes). Ready-made design
programs almost always insert their
2-cents worth into your designing, which affect the
coding of your web pages and can confuse the
beginner who's trying to learn to read
raw HTML code. Design programs are
great. I use them. But for learning HTML,
notepad is best.
To
open Notepad from your desktop, click on:
START>
PROGRAM FILES> ACCESSORIES>
NOTEPAD
*Netscape
7.2 Version
This is a FREE
browser that you can download. You're not really
downloading it for the browser, but
for the free design program that's
included called "Netscape
Composer".
Composer is used throughout this tutorial to
test your code and see if it's working
properly. You can choose not to
download Composer, but it is
recommended. It's a great program to have handy also,
and it is used in our web course for
beginners.
