To maximize your BLOG enjoyment, larning a little HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is nice.
To practice:
- Open up a simple, no-brain text editor like Notepad and type this:
|
<B>This is bold text</B> and <I>This is italic text</I> and <U>This is underlined text</U>
|
- Save the text file, giving it a name ending with .html. For example: test.html
(You can also call it test.htm)
- Then click on the saved file and your browser will display it like so:
|
This is bold text and This is italic text and This is underlined text
|
- Continue typing text in that test.html file, like so:
<TABLE><TD> <BR>This is a table, starting with TD meaning Table Data.
<BR>Tables have rows and columns.
<BR>We can put something (like an picture) in the "next" column.
</TD><TD>
<IMG SRC = "http://www.gummy-stuff/org/NCL-gem.jpg">
</TD> </TABLE>
|
Note that </TD> ends the data and </TABLE> ends the table.
Note, too, that http://www.gummy-stuff/org/NCL-gem.jpg is the URL of a picture on the Internet.
- Now save the test.html file and open it with your browser. It'll look like this:
This is bold text and This is italic text and This is underlined text
This is a table, starting with TD meaning Table Data.
Tables have rows and columns.
We can put something (like an picture) in the "next" column.

|
- To add color to the table, you can change
<TABLE><TD>
to
<TABLE BGCOLOR="cyan"><TD>
Then the your test.html file will look like this:
This is bold text and This is italic text and This is underlined text
This is a table, starting with TD meaning Table Data.
Tables have rows and columns.
We can put something (like an picture) in the "next" column.
