I need HTML Training please !

[Jason]

Ok well I have decided to try HTML to make a website for my game "Plaine", but you see, I know nothing about it, I've learned bits and bobs from websites, I can make paragraphs, line breaks, headers, horizontal lines to seperate the text, and title the page...

However, I would like to take this further and would appreciate it if someone could help place a background, change the font, insert pictures onto it, and how would I go about maybe putting some BG Music on it and making a second page of the website and linking the two together by a picture, so I click the ENTER SITE picture and it takes me to my second page.

I would appreciate it if someone could help me, also if you can tell me how to put writing at the very bottom of the screen so I can credit you for helping me.

Thankyou.

Thats quite a bit you are asking for. I'll answer your last question, but I am to busy to help you with main training.


For bottom text, use

<h6>And thanks to <name here> for helping me with this little site</h6>

How do I center it ?

<center><h6>And thanks to <name here> for helping me with this little site</h6></center>
PM me with anything else you need for it.

this is too easy...here are some things you should know!

links -
Text for Link
images -
<img src="url" alt=whatever" width="number" height="number">
things with = can have quotes or not...doesn't matter, but you can't not have the same ending as the beginning.

embeding music is as easy as this
<EMBED SRC="tracks/track03.mp3 or whatever." AUTOSTART="false or true" WIDTH="144" HEIGHT="15"></EMBED>

images links combine the <a href> and the <img> tags. it would look like this
<center>
page.html><img src=</center>

hope I've helped!

I copied your Music one and typed the song name and put autostart to false... but nothing happens..

Ok I got the embed to work but I hear nothing ? My speakers are turned on and up, the sound on the embeded player is up and its on on my PC, any ideas ?

 

[djzalzer]

That's because autostart=false means that it doesn't automatically start.  Set to true.

Not that I really like bgmusic on websites >.>

http://www.draac.com is the best site ever.

Also, NeoPets tutorial on HTML. I kid you not. Taught me when I was 11, which is well... most kids on that site ARE 11, but you get my point.

 

[Injury]

haha
why don't you just goto

w3schools ? its is THE BEST SITE. BETER THAN ASKA RAYS!

 

[Cruelty]

yeah.. w3schools is one of the best sites for learning this shit. =D

I dunno if it still exists, but layoutland.net helped me.

you could also try http://www.htmldog.com/ teaches html and css.

 

[Tohsaka]

Are we working with Tables, or CSS? I know how to do it in CSS, add me to MSN. twar3draconis [at@] hotmail dotcom

Try to use a web programming language with HTML, like Visual BASIC (or C#) with ASP.NET.  Ruby on Rails, PHP, and Python are good, too.  If you are just looking to make a simple format for your page with a background, different text colors, sizes, the like, then you need to learn CSS.  It's a lot easier than just programming each page individually.

 

[t0nedef]

you can find complete training courses in everything mentioned so far at http://www.w3schools.com/
best of all, the courses are completely free and you do it at your own pace. Support web standards!

 

[IStripAtParties]

I always have turnd to www.pageresource.com if I ever wnat to know anything.  It even has a tutorial on php and more!

 

[lorddonk]

I learned from, http://www.lissaexplains.com/. It's sad because it is a site for teaching children, but it was perfect for me because it was so easy to understand, it also delves into a bit of CSS, which you will also probably want to learn, as HTML by itself isn't too great for websites anymore.

 

[kaidus]

I'm not trying to be a dick, but if you are planning on making a website to draw people into your game you should probably learn something about web-design (ie. how to make attractive sites), not just the odd bit of code. A badly designed website will turn more people off than it will attract.

 

[faxmunky]

Try www.w3schools.com teaches you alot :D

CSS is good to learn for all of these things.
