BASIC HTML TUTORIAL

 

Table of Contents

You may go to whatever lesson you want, to look up something specific, but they are designed to be followed in order. Some of the lessons ask you to apply what you learn by creating a sample web page. In those lessons, I have also created a sample page of my own which you may compare yours to, as well as a page revealing the exact code used to create it. Your sample web pages will reside on your computer - you do not need to upload them to a web space.

"Now I lay down
to count sheep,

Oh I pray my
code shall keep,

If I should pass
on with the graved,

Oh I pray my
code is saved."
