1AFM.com Basic HTML Tutorial
HTML stands for hypertext markup language and it is a very simple computer language. With a little information and practice you can master the basics in no time at all.
Learning a little bit about HTML is very useful, even if you use Frontpage or templates because it will help you to see exactly what you're working with when looking at html pages.
There are a lot of good html tutorials out there, but I needed to create one that was simple and concise, yet as all-inclusive as possible. I also wanted to present it so that a user can go from the first snippet of code, all the way to a completed page in just a few minutes. Finally, and most importantly, I wanted to present as much of the code as possible in forms so that users can simply copy and paste any code that they want at any stage along the way.
