How To Make Web Pages
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Your web page title</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
Hello World!
</BODY>
</HTML>
Now, choose save the file as hello.html Please notice that you can't miss putting that .html at the end of the name because that is what defines an HTML file. Once saved, open your browser and take a look at your page. The output should be something like this:
Hello World!
If you have closed Notepad but want to do further editing of your page, open Notepad again, choose File | Open and on File Types choose "All files". Now look for the one you want and double click it and it should be ready for further editing. (Mac users might drag the file on Simple Text's icon or try to get it from Simple Text's Open command.)
OK, let me now explain how this file goes. The <HTML> must be always be in a web page, this is what allow thebrowsers to know it is HTML indeed. Anyways, always use <HTML> Next is <HEAD>, which defines the head of the file, such as titles and the such. Then <HEAD> closes, and comes <BODY> , which must also be on all web pages you do. Hello World! is normal text, it is between <BODY> and </BODY> and it is not inside a <> so it will show to the screen. Now, you might have noticed that most, if not all tags in here (for example, <HTML> is a tag) are paired with another that starts with a "/". The one with the "/" closes the specific tag and it is no longer in effect after that.
Text and background colors
Well, lets get a bit more sophisticated, lets now define the text and background color as well as the links colors. This is the same HTML that you just copied, so only add the new stuff. The new stuff are in bold.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Your web page title</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY TEXT="#000000" BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" LINK="#000080" ALINK="#000080" VLINK="#800080">
Hello World!<BR>
Hello World once again!<BR>
And Hello World even again!<BR>
</BODY>
</HTML>
OK. These are attributes of the <BODY> tag. TEXT will define default text color in page, BGCOLOR will define default background color in page, LINK will define of which color links will be, ALINK will define which color to turn to temporarily when you click on a link (to give the effect of a flash), and VLINK defines which color links you have already visited will be. All of these attributes are optional, but highly recommended to ensure that most browsers will render the page the same or in a similar way. It is possible that when you view this new HTML you just did perhaps you won't notice any changes, or maybe will. Anyways, it is always good to set the <BODY> attributes to something to ensure that most browsers will render the page in quite the same way. Also, you will notice that all of these attributes are set equal to an hexadecimal number. That number defines the color. These colors are defined as follows: "#RRGGBB" So the first two letters are for the red color, the middle two for the green color and the last two for the blue color.
