The web as you may know it home to millions of sites. You know that these sites are owned by millions of people. What you don't know is that you can have a site all your own.
Hi, I'm Andrew Magrisso and I am going to be your instructor on how to create your very own web pages. I'll start off with the easiest pieces of HTML and I'll get more advanced as you progress.
I made this web site tutorial to amuse myself to help people do things they couldn't do before. I hope I will make many new friends on my journey through this tutorial.
Before we begin you must know that web pages are made from HTML or Hyper Text Markup Language. It is written in tags inside < and >
Example: <HTML>. All HTML is written like that. You do not need to use capital letters if you don't want to. They are like that because many people find it easier to read. I personally don't because my HTML editor makes tags different colors for me. A good HTML editor is in fact Notepad! just rip that baby out and start coding. There are professional HTML editors out there that do the job as well.
In addition to HTML, other web languages and uh "doo dads" are used. CSS or Cascading Style Sheets are used to alter the appearance of web pages.
Another popular language is JavaScript. This is used to create cool effects on your web site.
Now, your ready for HTML lesson 1. Close this window and click "Lesson 1" when your ready.
