HTML is the language used to make most of the web pages now. Some people use Java or some other languages. HTML is the easiest to learn. Java is a lot more difficult but is way more powerful than HTML. That neat flashy thingy when you load onto my page is a Java script, and my random midi player is also a Java script. There is also another web language called CGI or Common Gateway Interface, which search engines used to query your search. On this page you should learn enough to publish your own page and when your ready you can ask your ISP if they give you online space and if they don't go here geocities and get 2 megs for free! In the future I will have examples of frames and how they work, and some other stuff. Enjoy!
Learning HTML
This tag right here
<BODY BGCOLOR="#000000" TEXT="#FF0000" LINK="#0000FF" VLINK="#FFFFFF">
controls the color of the page. The BODY tag tells Netscape or Internet Explorer to look for what will be the background color, the text color, the link color before you click on it, and the link color after you click on it.
BGCOLOR is the background color and I used #000000 (black for the background). TEXT is the color of the writing I used #FF0000 (red). The LINK tag tells the browser the color of the links on your page, I used #0000FF (blue). The VLINK tag is the color of the link after you clicked on it. I used #FFFFFF (white).
<p>This tag starts a new paragraph in an HTML file.</p> That tag ends the paragraph<p>Hello world!</p>The <b> tag makes your writing bold <b>example</b>The <strong> tag also does this and ends with </strong><I> makes text italics and </I> ends italics<I>Italics</I><font color="#00FF00">This would make the font color green.</font> ends this<font color=yellow>This also works, the font color should be yellow</font>
<LI>Would make a little dot, good for outlining stuff, etc.A hyperlink is what makes another computer be able to link to one another example <A HREF="http://geocities.datacellar.net/">Geocities</A> this would create link to geocities.
