THE GUIDR
Headings and Titles - A1 Steak Sauce
The very top of the page, the Heading, or Title, is always just plain ole' font. Fontity font font. They must be big and bold. How? Here: <h1> - <h6> H is the variable for 'Heading'. 1 is the biggest. Example, if I wanted a big heading I would put: <h1> Title </h1>. By the way, don't forget, this isn't forums, so [h1] and [/h1] do NOT work. The / means he END of the command. Back to headings, you should know that h4 is the normal font, like the one I'm in now. However big you want it, should be correct size. </lesson>
Paragraphs - B1
Paragraphs. People need to use a thing called the "RESTROOM". They don't have time, they are reading you're stuff... That's why PARAGRAPHS were made. A very simple command, no explanation need. <p> Blah </p>
Simple, right?
NO! HTML IS NEVER SIMPLE!! Except this.
Style - C1
Face it. You're stuuuuupid styles are uuuugleh.Fixed. The two styles: Bold and Italic.
Sub Category: Bold C2
D:... But there is boldness! Boldness, as I will use in this entire lesson, makes it more... bold! (no really?!?) lawl, anyways, The simple commands for bold text is <b> Text that is bold. </b> And boom. Use boldy text to highlight text for easier viewing, like answers to a question... </lesson>
Sub Category: Italics C3
D: But there is italicness! Italics, as I will use in this entire lesson, makes it more... sideways! (no really?!?) lawl, anyways, The simple commands for italic text is <i> Text that is bold. </i> And boom. Use italiccy text to just make the text more purteh.</lesson>
List - D1
Listing. 2 types of them. Unordered and... ordered.
They are simple. You have to use <ul> and </ul> for:
* Listing undordely.
* With dots.
* In a random order of your chosing.
K, and use <ol> and </ol> for the following:
1. Listing orderly.
2. With numbahs.
3. Like a step by step procedure.
OK, The funnest part. To me, at least!
Links - E1
Links link you to other websites and stuffs. Sadly, you must save it to a special folder. I will indicate how at the end of this post.
Sub Category: Links to Local Files - F2
Ok, for this one, you need to create a whole new webpage, using notepad or word or any other word processor. I will tell you how to save to the same folder at the end of this post.
Kinda hard to type, copy and paste if you need.
<a href="filenameofthefileinsamefolder.html">text is the.. name of the link.</a> Change filenameofthefileinsa-BLAH you know, change it to the name of the file in the same folder. Then, change text is the bla bla to what you want it to say as a link, or if you want to leave it blank, you can't. Why would you anyway? The file in filename blah MUST BE IN THE SAME FOLDER RAWR!!
K, that should be it. I think.
Sub Category: Links to an Existing Website - F3
Yah, to an existing site, like toribash.com.
The code: <a href="URL">Text to Activate Link</a>
Change the URL to.. the URL, (the site's web address) And Text To Activate Link is the same as the fileblah on the previous lesson. Keep the quotes around the URL, too.
Also note, the site does not have to be in the same folder as the site you are making.
Last lesson.
Colors - G1
How to change the colors in the text and background. Background is only solid colors.
This is simple, it changes the color of everything.
<body bgcolor=(insertcolorhere) TEXT = (color) LINK = (color) VLINK = (color)
Whoo, was hard. Now:
* BGCOLOR = the color of the background (default is grey)
* TEXT = the color of normal body text (default is black)
* LINK = the color of an item that is a hypertext link (default is blue)
* VLINK = the color of a hypertext item recently visited (default is purple)
That is all my lessons.
NOW SAVE IT CORRECTLY!!
You MUST save it in My Documents > Webs. Save it as HTML. Like website.html.
For the links thing, make another website and name it something like website2.html, and link the file to it.
Type your name and e-mail at the bottom of the document for the reader to ask you questions.
NOTE: YOU MUST PAY FOR A SERVER TO HOST A WEBSITE, I DON'T KNOW HOW, GOOGLE IT.
PM me or post here if you have any comments.
*looks at time* What a way to spend an hour.
</class>
EDIT: I remembered, here's how you open the file as HTML and on a web browser.
Click on 'File' > Open, go to My Documents > Webs, and choose the saved site.
EDIT2: And if you see a problem with the guide, PM or post here.
I put in a special typo on purpose, I'm not telling you what, I'm just doing it to make sure your typo-reporting services work.
Which one was made on purpose i dont know Lol.
