You're Writing HTML!
---------

Other than the alphabet,
you will need to know only 5 characters
from your keyboard to learn to write
the easy computer language - HTML.
Here they are:

Here again, is the simple layout of HTML tags for a web page:
<html>
<head>
<title>Page Title Text Goes Here!</title>
</head>
<body>
<center>Photos and Text Go Here!</center>
</body>
</html>

(See Above Graphic)
The text between the <title></title> tags will display
on the colored top border of the browser window,
not in the actual body of the page.

A Labor Intensive Exercise...you don't really have to do this.

Pick any website on the Net, and while you're there, Click View>Source
to see their HTML and save it as "stolen.htm".
This will be your first look at a complicated page of HTML!
Delete everything but the following simple pattern of keyboard characters,
and the html is yours:

<html>
<head>
<title>Replace the Title here!</title>
</head>
<body>
<center>HIYA! Delete everything in between the body tags!</center>
</body>
</html>

As you delete more and more stuff,
keep saving the .htm file and refreshing IE to view the changes.
You will learn the essential tags!

The next lesson will summarize the essential tags.
