PM me your IP please. ----------------------------------- Martin Sun Oct 31, 2004 12:22 pm ----------------------------------- Okay, that looks good. So, have you tried changing things in it? Adding another row or column, change the font size, the title, etc? The biggest thing to realize when learning something new is that it is really boring at first. Unfortunately, if you don't sit through the boring stuff, you won't learn enough to get to the exciting parts. ----------------------------------- dsantamassino Sun Oct 31, 2004 12:47 pm ----------------------------------- Okay, that looks good.

The 1 i made from w3schools didnt show up on my Apache server. ----------------------------------- Martin Sun Oct 31, 2004 12:53 pm ----------------------------------- The best way to learn HTML in my opinion is to simply take another, already made webpage and modify it so that you can see how everything works. So try that: change the title of the website, change the number of rows, and the number of columns. ----------------------------------- dsantamassino Sun Oct 31, 2004 12:54 pm ----------------------------------- The best way to learn HTML in my opinion is to simply take another, already made webpage and modify it so that you can see how everything works.

In each of the tutorials, they give you a sample site. Just take that, and try to change everything. Add things to it, take things away, and just figure out what works and what doesn't. ----------------------------------- dsantamassino Sun Oct 31, 2004 1:08 pm ----------------------------------- Martin, how does my HTML looks so far on my server?? ----------------------------------- Martin Sun Oct 31, 2004 2:42 pm ----------------------------------- Looks good. Keep working at it, you'll get it. ----------------------------------- dsantamassino Sun Oct 31, 2004 3:03 pm ----------------------------------- Looks good. Keep working at it, you'll get it.
