0 Subject: HTML Lesson #1

Posted by: Gary - [323102821] Sat, Apr 29, 00:01
I did this last year and helped people start there own web pages but with Guru's new message board we can use some of that knowledge to enhance our enjoyment.

These lessons will come for awhile so feel free to ask questions and I will try to answer them for you.

To start with ( really means < unless otherwise stated same goes for this ) means >.

Understood.

So lets start with making links to a certain page. I will use ESPN's scoreboard page as a link:

http://espn.go.com/mlb/today/sco.html

So if you want to make a link to that site then you would type this into the message box to make a link to it.

(A href="http://espn.go.com/mlb/today/sco.html")ESPN Scoreboard(/A)

Remember to replace the () with <>.
If done correctly it should look like this:ESPN Scoreboard

Next lesson we will learn to put a picture in the message box.

Eventually I will teach you all how to do tables so you can organize your data in the message box.

Until later

      Sun, Apr 30, 12:08 		I have a question about these links. Is it possible to put a link on your team page at smallworld? Perhaps under the division name?

      Sun, Apr 30, 12:09 		need to place a space between the A and the Href so it looks like this

(A Href="http://espn.go.com/mlb/today/sco.html")

Remember that ( means < and ) means >

This should fix the problem Bean Dip
