where did you learn html from?

Recommended Posts

i downloaded a good tutorial from the net.You can either go on yahoo and search for html tutorial & script websites, or you could just go to your local bookstore (barnes & nobles) and buy books about it. It's cheap and very easy to understand.

Heh, maybe I'm getting old or I'm already old but when I learned HTML there was no such thing as WYSIWYG editors like frontpage. Everything was done in text editors and you just coded.Now though, I use the WYSIWYG editors because it is much easier to create tables and stuff when you can see what you're doing! But, I still go into the code and tweak it often because those WYSIWYG editors don't always work the way you want it to.

I learned it by readind my cousin's HTML book, we don't have internet connection the so I relied on mostly on that book. after a year I checked the book again and realised how basic the contents are. I wondered how I learned from that book. hehehe but at least it was a good start. I went thought those "Hello World" examples. lolz

Im really new at HTML and stuff does anyone have advice where I should learn it ?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>


Well Wesbo

 

the first thing i recommend you to do is get out of the house

goto to your nearest book store and buy the book labeled

HTML 4.0 FOR DUMMIES the easiest book for you to start off

then as you start reading the book try practicing it in your windows notepad

you will get the details in the book, but remember dont read today and then

again the next week , read it daily or maybe on hourly bases,

you'll learn faster and better, it'll stay in your mind longer

tell me if these tips helped you. :)

At first i started messin with the internet i was using msn groups. so there was no need to learn html. then my isp started hosting websites so i kinda learned it through msn groups and developed it through random websites... i know a lot now and i sometimes use dreamweaver mx or so... lately i have just been codin it straight through notepad though.

I don't know a whole lot yet, but soon I hope to be able to figure this stuff out more. I suppose building your own page is the best way to get hands on experience huh? I used to do those simple geocities sites several years ago and those were nice and simple enough. But now I figure it should be time to get serious and consider something that i can work more with and hopefully with this, I have found the right one.

Believe it or not I learned html from the neopets.com html guide to make my first website. Then I just kept adding onto my knowledge and then started using html text editors and then WYSIWYG editor like dreamweaver and now I am a multi language computer geek and I can make a fully intergrated webportal out of html. But now I use php and java script, stuff like that. :P
