Most web pages make use of tables to correctly allign the layout on the screen. Make sure you always close whatever table tag you are using, or else some browsers will not be able to display your page at all. What has always been helpful to me in making sure I close all tags is using alignment of the html code. For instance...
<table width=... height=...>
<tr width=100% height=...>
<td width=... height=...>
text
</td>
<td>
<image.jpg> </td>
</tr>
</table>
The only time this gets a little tricky is when you cut up an image and want to use a table to correctly glue all the pieces of the image together again. In that case, you need to make sure you put the </td> tag directly behind the image tag. For instance:
<table width=... height=...>
<tr width=100% height=...>
<td width=... height=...>
<image1.jpg> </td>
<td>
<image2.jpg> </td>
</tr>
</table>
Aligning isn't just good for tables though. It always is a good idea to align your complete HTML in this fashion.
toodles,
Henri

Hey!
< html > < /html> -- these are required for webpages, everything must be in between these tags.
< head >< /head > -- the head is used pretty much information for the browser, doesn't affect design of the page.
< title >< /title > -- goes in between head tags, gives the webpage a name and will be displayed in the windows title bar.
< body >< /body > -- the main tags used for the "body" of the page. All writing and webpage content goes in here.
Here's an example:
< html >
< head >
< title >Your webpage< /title >
< /head >
< body >
Content and Information here...
< /body >
< /html >

I see the topic has been moved so i will post it again!
< I > Is italics
< B > Is bold
< S > Is striked lettering
< P > Is what you use for paragraphs
< BR > Is what you use for line breaks
Also remember when you start a code that you always finish it by using the / key
Eg. < P > Hello < /P >
< img src=" Insert URL of pic here " >
So it kinda looks something like this:

This is from nobbe! He's away so he probably didnt know that they moved the thread!
< a href="insert URL here" >What the link is
but it's generally a good idea to tell the link to open in a new window, so you specifiy a "Target" so follow the example below...
< a href="http://www.outpost10f.com/" target="_blank" >Outpost10f.com < /a > which comes out like this: Outpost10f.com

I find webmonkey pretty useful too... http://www.webmonkey.com
And if you're interested in colour codes then have a look at
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/reference/color_codes/
Remember though, if you're using the hex value to always add a "#" infront of the value so white would be <font face="arial" color="#FFFFFF"> Or as you rightly said <font face="arial" color="white">
Any more questions just ask

DemonVamp: I'll pin this topic for you here in the Tech Forum but not in General Chatter.
As for HTML and other language help. If you got questions, feel free to ask otherwise I strongly suggest you supplement your learning by going to HTML Goodies. It's the best learning guide on the web IMHO

Okay, I'm learning HTML the hard way, picking up bits and pieces here there and everywhere, jumping between websites and tutorials like a mad little bunny. Hows about we pin a topic in here, or on the main general chatter page, where people can just drop their knowledge of this alien language for the less technically inclined? I remember reading that someone had been doing courses here, but I missed all that.

I think It would probably be better here as this is where all the techy sort of ppl come. Perhaps they would also include other languages as well. I know i'm having a problem in VB that i can't figure so i'm getting my mathematically inclined friend to come round and solve it for me, but im sure some ppl out there have other programming questions.
I also do know some HTML and would be happy to provide help wherever possible.

Okay, as no one else seems to be playing, here's some stuff.
Text colour codes are as follows:
F0F8FF this is Alice blue
FAEBD7 this is Antique white
00FFFF Aqua
7FFFD4 Aquamarine
F0FFFF azure
F5F5DC beige
0000FF blue
8A2BE2 blueviolet
A52A2A brown
I know you can sometimes use the actual word, i.e Yellow or red too. But it appears to be fritzing out here today for some reason.
More colours to follow.

Do you mean the difference between colors?
Simple! There are six digits in a hex code. The first two are the amount of red, the second, green, and the last two are the amount of blue. The range is 0 - F. So #FF0000 would be totally red and #00FF00 would be totally green... you get the picture

My edit scissors are working overtime.  The site I usually go to (not that I need it! ) is www.w3schools.org. In addition to the step by step tutorial, there's also various reference guides where you can "look up" each tag and what it does, not only for HTML but CSS! I really recommend this!

It's not really 'proper HTML' per say, but color="amandy" gives you this lovely violet color I'm using here.
Generally speaking, tags should be in all lower case.
Be sure to enclose all tag parameters inside quotation marks.
ie: | Code Sample | | <font color="00ff33" face="Comic Sans MS" size="2"> |
Strictly speaking, <p> and <center> tags should not be used. They have been replaced by the <div> tag, and are only kept in browsers for backwards compatibility. The align parameter, which is the one most commonly used with the tag, can be set to left, right, center, or justify.
I have found that the best way to learn HTML or any other programing language is to pick apart already existing code to see how it works. So go to web pages you like and take a look at the source to see how they did it. You can also save the page and tinker around with things. Have fun, and good luck.
