HTML - Constructing Webpage Basics?
I need to apply what I have read on HTML and CSS, I wish to start from the very basics and build on that step by step so I will appreciate some help and patience please to make sure I understand every symbol in a code.
First thing, what's the very first things you pro's do when planning to build a site? Do you draw out layout on paper? Similar Tutorialshello all, this is my first construction with html and is going relly well have only one problem http://denderboystest.webs.com/index.htm like you can see i made a header and a navigation toolbar all with help of programs of course but i can't get my navigator things into my colored field someone can help Hi I hope some1 can help me, am designing a site but it needs some jazzing up!!its hard to explain but it looks very flat plain Firstly, does any1 know of somewhere where i might get some flashy text for displaying titles and headings etc thats more attractive than the usuals? Also, I want to display a picture only as a thumbnail and when user clicks on it then, it appears in a new window? And I also want to upload a microsoft word file that users can download for themselves??? Thanks a mill!! gk Hello all, I am designing my first website and have taught myself the very basics of HTML/CSS but am at a bit of a loss where to start. I want to start by creating the layout. Is this the usual way? I want about 5 pages and so would like to create the navigation bar down the left and drop down menus at the top which will then link to blank pages - all laid out, ready for text/photos etc to be added. I realise that the layout should be created in CSS. Tables, I believe, are bad practice for layout design. What should I use instead? I am grateful for anyone's help to get me off the starting blocks! All the best Phil Hi, I am building a site from some artwork that was supplied to me for a website that will ultimately be transformed into a theme for silverstripe but now the client has changed their mind and wants a static HTML version put into immediate action for the time being... problem is that the design is giving me massive headaches in building the basic structure for the site. There are aspects of the design that I am struggling to re-build, such as diagonal lines that stretch from one menu to another... Can any one help suggesting answers to such problems... Have attached some of the code and a PDF of the example artwork (please note I have been construction and reconstructing / deconstructing this code for a few days now and I fear it is beginning to look like it -messy )... Any help greatly appreciated... Sorry if i posted this in the wrong location. So im a real estate agent making a website. Im no pro and most of the stuff ive been using to build has been through layouts/generators/help of others such as yourselves. So ive been stuck on finding/making this code for the past couple of days. So all my listings are on my agencys website, not my personal agent website. Is there a code i could have where in the listings page my my personal agent website, i could have a window maybe 600x900 of the listing page on my agencys website? To kind of clear things up, you know how when you google something you have the magnifying glass, how it gives that preview. How can i have that preview coded onto a webpage, but me say what webpage to preview and how big to make the preview box? Tried to explain it as best i could. If you dont know the code, if you can tell me what its called so i can try to narrow the google searches. So far everything that has been coming up in the search restults has been preview boxes to preview html codes you have already written. Fail Blog Thanks how do i make a background image fit to the window. also i have a button on a page. how do i get it to close the window uppon clicking it. any help would be great. Hi, i have a problem im not sure how to go about it . I have a webpage where the user enters there personal details .

My website is uspsrealty.com There is some "empty" space on my home page below the horizontal line. I want to remove the horizontal line and have the ability to use that empty space without throwing my borders/margins off. I would like to add about 3-4 sentences in that blank area. Can this be changed so I can add a few sentences? I know why this is happening, just don't know how to correct it. Also want to change the copyright.jpg to 2010 from 2009. Might as well make up a few more jpgs with the years 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015 Willing to paypal you money for your help.
