iGuest 3 Report post Posted November 9, 2004 ok, im going to approach this abit different. im going to give you a step by step tutorial on how to make a simple webpage: first things first, every html tag is enclosed in every tag must be closed before a parent tag is closed. ex: <HTML><BODY></HTML></BODY> (INCORRECT)it should be: <HTML><BODY></BODY></HTML> (CORRECT) every webpage should be enclosed in the HTML tag, so: <HTML></HTML> the invisible part of the webpage should be enclosed in the HEAD tag, the most common tag that goes inside the HEAD tag is the TITLE tag which is what is displayed in the browser bar, so: <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>My Cool Web Page!</TITLE></HEAD></HTML> the part that you see should be enclosed in the BODY tag, and any text in the BODY tag will appear as text, so: <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>My Cool Web Page!</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>This is my very cool web page!</BODY></HTML> BUT I WANT MY BACKGROUND TO BE BLACK!!!well then you will do the following: <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>My Cool Web Page!</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="black">This is my very cool web page!</BODY></HTML> GRR! NOW I CANT SEE MY TEXT!your text is black too! Well I want it white... ok, then add the FONT tag with the COLOR set to white : <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>My Cool Web Page!</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="black"><FONT COLOR="white">This is my very cool web page!</FONT></BODY></HTML> ok that's better I want the text 'This is my very cool web page!' to be big like a header then use a H# tag where # is the header number from 1 to 6, where 1 is biggest and 6 is smallest. like such: <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>My Cool Web Page!</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="black"><FONT COLOR="white"><H1>This is my very cool web page!</H1></FONT></BODY></HTML> What about a line across the page?use the HR tag, like: <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>My Cool Web Page!</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="black"><FONT COLOR="white"><H1>This is my very cool web page!</H1><HR></FONT></BODY></HTML> now i want a link!ok... use the A tag with HREF set to the link you want it to go to... like such: <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>My Cool Web Page!</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="black"><FONT COLOR="white"><H1>This is my very cool web page!</H1><HR><A HREF="http://winbots.org/">my other very cool website!</A></FONT></BODY></HTML> now i want a new lineuse the BR tag where ever you want a newline (note hitting enter will NOT start a new line): <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>My Cool Web Page!</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="black"><FONT COLOR="white"><H1>This is my very cool web page!</H1><HR><A HREF="http://winbots.org/">my other very cool website!</A><BR>my other cool text..<BR>and my other line...</FONT></BODY></HTML> now i want to do just one more thing... i want a link to my emailok it works like a reguler link except instead of http://www.mydomain.com/, you do mailto:myemail@mydomain.com. <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>My Cool Web Page!</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="black"><FONT COLOR="white"><H1>This is my very cool web page!</H1><HR><A HREF="http://winbots.org/">my other very cool website!</A><BR>my other cool text..<BR>and my other line...<BR><BR>you can email me <A HREF="mailto:Cobi@winbots.org">here</A></FONT></BODY></HTML> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
