What you'll need A word processor (notepad, context )
A Web Browser (Firefox[pref.] IE, Chrome, Opera, Safari]
A Keyboard, Mouse, Monitor, and Computer.Lesson 0First off i would like to recommend that you all use Firefox. Because Firefox is a great resource; you can use the "View Source Code" when right clicking. and other such things.
For your word processor I would recommend using anything but Microsoft word or Apples crappy equivalent to it. (or whatever its call) just because they jumble code up a bit and it won’t come out as well..
Starting off Open up your word processor type in
- Code:
-
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
Hello World
</body>
</html>
Html is the coding language that your browser will be reading. Though, I’m pretty sure if you don’t put the HTML code it will work just the same.
Head is the HTML header which I’ll get into more next lesson.
Title is… well the title. If you mess around with it you’ll see the visible changes at the top of your web browser.
Body is the body of the page. Here is where you will be making the bulk of your coding. Which I’ll get into later on.
anyway. click
File -> Save asand find the drop down menu for
Save as File Type. select "HTML document" and save the file as "L0.html"
you can now open the L0.html in your web browser. ain't it spiffy? yah... kinda bland though don't you think? we'll spruce it up a bit more next lesson.
