So you want to create a website but want to know where you should begin. Well first you should have learned a little about websites in the last couple lessons. This should help you understand the basics of how it works. This understanding is not really required to create the page but gives you an understanding. A webpage is really just a simple text document consisting of letters, numbers, and symbols. All you webpages can be written in Notepad (windows) or simpletext (mac) and will just be saved with a .html extension. This text is read and interpreted by a program called a browser and depending on the instructions is displayed accordingly. So the best place to begin should be to learn how to give instructions to the browser, but you also may need a place to store thes files online. This will be covered first and then we will move on to the wonderful instruction language known as HTML, or Hyper Text Markup Language. After that we will move on to more advanced languages that can be recognized by browsers and allow for more interactive pages. |
