dw408 Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 I got this off my post on [DesktopEssentials.info](http://DesktopEssentials.info).Now, don't expect to have your site to be as professional as the ones you see right after this tut. But I am a newbie as are you so I will update the page whenever I learn a new thing. So here we go!1\. Open Notepad via your start menu. (If you are on windows you can open the start menu, click run and type "notepad" without the quotes.)2\. We will have to start off by entering the following code:```The site's title ges here(The rest of the website's code goes here)```. Once entered that you can enter your coding where is says "(the rest of the website's code goes here)" without the quotes.So that's the starting point done, now let's learn the real coding.**The Simple Stuff**The rest of the tutorials you put the coding where it said (The rest of the website's code goes here).To insert a header of the site you simply```# Insert header text hereAnd if you want to insert text```Insert text here```Now your full coding should look like this```Your Title # Your headerYour text```Also, did you notice that at the end of every tiny bit of coding it would have And remember when you are finished go File>Save and save the file's name as "index.html" without the quotes.**Headings**In the last tutorial you learnt how to make a heading but now I am gonna teach you more.# isn't the only heading tag. You can have # ot ###### , # defines the largest and ###### defines smallest.e.g.```# This is the largest heading## This is second largest### This is the third largest#### This is the third smallest##### This is the second smallest<```Tut will be finished later…....``` Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drummerpete Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Good tutorial, but it's exactly like every other HTML tutorial on these forums.Someone who has the time should write a HTML/CSS "how to make a half-good look website" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eviltyphoon Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 uhm…@[SB:> Toclofane link=topic=53383.msg565927#msg565927 date=1256760262]> ```> > # Insert header text here> > ```You open a h1 tag and close with head?Also, I'm learning xHTML/CSS/javascript in college, so when I have some free time, I might write a tut for it.

Lam3r Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 lol the tutorial from DE that you got after reading my tutorial on these forums… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eviltyphoon Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 @Lam3r:> lol the tutorial from DE that you got after reading my tutorial on these forums…I just read your tut, and I see no obvious similarities. Except that the both of you are using loads of space to explain basically nothing usefull… I know you have to start somewhere, but I had to too, and I learned this 'basic' in 20 sec or so...

Guest Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 this takes 20 seconds to know, its easy, put the not so easy stuff, like img codes, and a bunch of that. the stuff that might no be so obvious bgcolor=, etc.Sincerely,Empress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 its pretty generic, its the basics, and theres like 5 other tutorials that have it.Sincerely,Empress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lam3r Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 That didn't answer my question, what wasn't useful about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 its not useful, because its mandatory in school to learn this by grade 8, everyone already knows it, teach us something we dont know.Sincerely,Empress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lam3r Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 haha wrong…completely wrong. They offer it in most schools, but lots of people decide not to take it. They make you have a technology credit, but most people just take introductions to computers themselves -- Photoshop, word, excel, powerpoint, etc.. Not programming/coding...

Eviltyphoon Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 @Lam3r:> That didn't answer my question, what wasn't useful about it?Most webdesigners use something else then notepad to make websites, and pretty much all of the stuff you explained gets autogenerated in any program other then notepad.

The generic tech classes are all introductions to various thingsAs for most web designers using programs other than notepad to make websites that is totally wrong...Lmao that's just a flat out guess and no proof to back it up. I for one use notepad to make websites and most of the people i know that design websites do as well. BTW my tutorial also tells why we use things the way we do, sure anyone can just bs there way through dreamweaver or something but have no idea what anything means, they just copy/paste. That's not learning HTML now is it? That's just copying and pasting code generated by a program into a file ending in .html... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
