Let's begin to create your first web page. To make this truly the easiest guide, we will ignore some technical terms and details that you don't need to know right now.

This tutorial will guide you in creating a simple web page containing text, image, links to other web pages, and email link. What you need for this tutorial is only a simple text editor program like Notepad or other programs that you use for writing text on your machine. If you're using Windows 95/98, just click 'Start' -> 'Programs' -> 'Accessories' -> 'Notepad'

First, type the first line of our web page

then type this

You can type them in capital case or lower case. It doesn't matter. I typed them in capital to make it easy to read. Nothing has happened yet; we have just told the browsers (Netscape, Internet Explorer, and etc.) that this is a HTML document. The first is to tell the browser that "Here's the begining of HTML section." tells the browsers that "Here's the end of HTML section." Inside these two tags is where you will put the contents of your web page in.

Notice that we have and . This is how we open and close HTML tags. The closing tag is always in format. In most case, you will have to close every tag that you open.

Next, add a HEAD section to your web page.

My first page

tells the browsers that the title of our web page is "My first page." This sentence will appear at the top of browser window. Where? Look at the top of this window (the one that you're reading) and you will see "The easiest HTML guide for beginners" OK. Now, let's put in the first word that the browser will display. <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>My first page

HELLO

We put to tell the browser that this is the starting point of the body of our document.

refers to header 1, which is the biggest size (see below.) You can try from

to

. Different numbers will yield different sizes.

Here is an example:

h1
h3
h5
Let's get back to our document. It now looks like this in a browser.

HELLO

Let's save this web page and view it in your browser. Save the page using 'save as' and name it whatever you like. Let's name it "mypage.htm" Please remember the location of your file. You may create a new directory for it or just simply save it in drive C. Open your web browser (Netscape or Internet Explorer) and try to open the file that you just save. Click on 'File' -> 'Open' and type in c:\mypage.htm or the path to your file.

You should see a big "Hello" in your browser.

Now, we'll add a sentence and align it.

My first page

HELLO

This text is aligned "left"

This text is aligned "right"

refers to paragraph. You don't need the closing tag for

, but some people put the closing tag as a reminder.

is the way to tell the browser to begin a new line. We have put the word ALIGN after

. It's what called an attribute, an optional indicator. Some attributes need quotation marks, but some don't. An easy rule to remember is to put the quotation marks in every attribute.

Here is how our page looks now:

HELLO
This text is aligned "left"

This text is aligned "right"

Next, let's add an image on our web page. You can insert an image by using this tag Please see the example below.

My first page

HELLO

This text is aligned left.

This text is aligned right.

HELLO
This text is aligned left.

This text is aligned right.

The easiest HTML guide for beginners
IN THIS SECTION - - > PAGE 1 | PAGE 2 | PAGE 3

As I said earlier, we will create a web page that has a link to another place, and a visitor can send an email to you. We can make these possible by using an anchor tag . See the example below.

My first page

HELLO

This text is aligned left.

This text is aligned right.

Click here to go to "Tips, Tricks, How to, and Beyond"

email me

You page now will look like this:

HELLO
This text is aligned left.

This text is aligned right.

Click here to go to "Tips, Tricks, How to, and Beyond"

email me

This ........ tells the browsers to link words or images inside to the direction stated in HREF=" ... " You can use it for email by using mailto:your@email.address (see example above.)

Now we have finished the tutorial. You must save this file as an .htm or .html file. Simply click "Save As" and name it whatever you want, ending with .htm or .html. For example, mypage.htm. You can now test it from your web browsers. Open your Netscape or Internet Explorer, select "file",select "open", click "browse" or "choose file" to select mypage.htm for viewing

tells the location of your graphic file. If it isn't in the same directory of your web document (the one that we are working on), you have to specify it differently. For example, calling it from your hard drive calling it from the location on the WWW

first off I design websites in my spare time and would never do anything for free unless it was for myself or one of my family

second why did you say you had web hosting if you don't

third you can do it yourself using a multitude of page builders or you can use front page - you should be able to buy this by going to PC World and telling them that you want to purchase Microsoft Front-page. Front-page offers fast and easy ways to create websites with drag and drop as well as templates

A very basic website can be done using Pagebuilder on Yahoo Geocities. You need know knowledge of HTML to do this.

The fastest, most inexpensive, least puzzling thanks to initiate an internet site is using geocities that's accessible on the Yahoo! menu. It has both sparkling pages and templates that you play with even as you make certain what you want and/or dislike. Yahoo! can help you get an internet site call and something else you make certain you ought to choose.

Just upload a file with this:

Too Busy!

While Other Companies

are busy making fancy websites

We are busy making the world's best pumps.

Sub your own company name and what you do in place of
'We are busy making the world's best pumps.' and that's it.
