    HTML Basic's
    ----------------------------------------


    Today you will learn how to make a pretty basic site from scratch. All you need is notepad or a similar program. If you are pretty confident with all the tags on forum's HTML tags are pretty much the same.

    with all HTML documents we start off with the "<html>" tag because
    it tells the browser what language you are talking in.

    Code:
    <html>
    This is followed by a "<head>" tag which tell us what will go at the bar at the top of the creen for GTABoards it is "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas ( GTA Boards)"
    so now we have;

    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    If we want a title to appear in our bar we must add a "<title>" tag;
    remember to close a tag you must use Italic text

    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My first webpage</title>

    Now we must close the "<head>" tag and create a "<body>" tag. The body tag will be what is on the screen;

    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My first webpage</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    to add a heading to your page we use the "<h1>"tag "h1 stands for heading one it is the biggest heading you can have. Heading&#39;s range
    from h1 to h6 so a large heading will be <h1> Large Heading & a small heading will be <h6> small heading</h6>. To center our heading we use
    the "<center>"tags

    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My first webpage</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <center><h1>My First Webpage</h1></center>
    If we want a line to seperate our heading from the rest of the page
    we use the "<hr>" tag this tag puts a line through wherever it is placed inside the code. If you want to have a line break you don&#39;t just press enter you have to use the "
    " tag, this tag puts a space inbetween text.

    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My first webpage</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>My First Webpage</h1>
    <hr>

    Now for our first paragraph we should use the "

    " tags:

    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My first webpage</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>My First Webpage</h1>
    <hr>
    
    
    
    
    This is the first paragraph of my first webpage
    
    </p>
    
    
    This is the second paragraph of my first webpage
    
    </p>

    Now to fomat your text we can use many tags to do this

    Code:
    insert text here
    give bold text
    Code:
    insert text here
    give italic text
    Code:
    insert text here
    give underlined text
    Code:
    insert text here
    give empahsized text


    To use these tag&#39;s we must insert them in our paragraph&#39;s;

    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My first webpage</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>My First Webpage</h1>
    <hr>
    
    
    
    
    This is the first paragraph of my first webpage
    
    </p>
    
    
    This is the second paragraph of my first webpage
    
    </p>
    to add links to other website&#39;s we must use;
    "Image Fake. com"
    we insert it into one of our paragraphs;


    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My first webpage</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>My First Webpage</h1>
    <hr>
    
    
    
    
    This is the first paragraph of my first webpage
    
    Image Fake. com
    </p>
    
    
    This is the second paragraph of my first webpage
    
    </p>
    To add images to your webpage we must use
    ""
    we insert it into one of our paragraphs like so;

    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My first webpage</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>My First Webpage</h1>
    <hr>
    
    
    
    
    This is the first paragraph of my first webpage
    Image Fake. com
    
    </p>
    
    
    This is the second paragraph of my first webpage
    
    
    </p>

    To finish off the code we must close the "</body>" & "</html>" tags



    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>My first webpage</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>My First Webpage</h1>
    <hr>
    
    
    
    
    This is the first paragraph of my first webpage
    Image Fake. com
    
    </p>
    
    
    This is the second paragraph of my first webpage
    
    
    </p>
    
    </body>
    </html>
    Thanks for your time and good night,

    Before a few weeks ago i knew nothing about HTML. This is also a very helpful guide I found recently:

    http://www.make-a-web-site.com/making1.html

    It has things from how to make blinking text(ow my eye), instert images, and everything that was covered here.
    "If you enjoy what you do, you&#39;ll never work another day in your life."

    My man confucius said it well :D

    Why is my signature text blue I did not make it like that??
