Writing HTML was created to help teachers create learning
resources that access information on the Internet. Therefore, the exercises here
involve writing a lesson called Volcanoes!
However, this tutorial may be used by anyone who wants
to create World Wide Web pages. By the time you have reached the end of this
tutorial you will be able to:
- Construct a series of linked web pages for any subject that includes formatted text,
pictures, and hypertext links to other web pages on the Internet.
- Design web pages that can be viewed with any web browser.
- Design web pages that include enhanced features supported by some web browsers.
For faster performance, you might want to
download an archive of all files
used in this tutorial.
If you like this tutorial, remember us for the next
Best of the Web Contest!
A few notes before you start...
- Read the Introduction.
Really! It contains useful information. Really!
- Peek at a sample of the
web page that you will create in this tutorial.
- It will help to use the Hotlist or Bookmark feature of your
web browser to mark this page since it is the index to all of the lessons.
- We've tried to write instructions generic to
any web browser, but with so many different ones available, sometimes
the menu names or features may not match the browser you are currently using.
- This tutorial will show you how to create web pages that can see outward to
the world. It will not tell you how to let the world see them; to do this you need to
locate an
Internet Service Provider that offers
to provide web server space. The web pages you design here then need only be transferred
to the server for the wide world to see.
And once you are done...
If your web pages become available on the World Wide Web, you can list them
on our
Writing HTML Alumni page using
our registration form.
Select a lesson from the list below. We suggest that you
proceed in order since each lesson builds upon examples from the
previous one. However, from each lesson you can
download the working file you would have created up to that point.
Writing HTML: the Lessons
Consider writing web pages like building a house. You first design
it on paper, thinking how the house will be used. The first construction
phase is preparing a solid foundation and structural support. You can add the
finishing touches later... and there will always be some sort of maintenance work to do
down the road.
