JUST BECAUSE YOU SAW SOME SOURCE CODE WRITTEN A PARTICULAR WAY IN SOMEONE ELSE'S PAGE DOESN'T MEAN THEY WROTE IT CORRECTLY. MORE OFTEN THAN NOT YOU'LL FIND THAT THEY DIDN'T WRITE IT CORRECTLY. BUT LOOKING AT OTHER PEOPLE'S SOURCE CODE IS STILL A GOOD WAY TO LEARN. IF SOURCE CODE ISN'T WRITTEN THE CORRECT WAY IT CAN CAUSE OBJECTS TO BE DISPLAYED IN PLACES YOU DON"T WANT THEM IN OR EVEN CRASH SOMEONE'S BROWSER. NETSCAPOE 4.X USERS ARE THE MOST VULNERABLE TO CRASHING. MOST OF THE TIME BROWSERS A VERY FORGIVING WHEN IT COMES TO BAD SOURCE CODE. BUT WHY TAKE CHANCES. THE MORE CORRECTLY YOU WRITE YOUR PAGES THE MOER BROWSERS THEY WILL WORK WITH.\n\nfree ftp clients - http://www.trustmeher.net/freeware/cute.htm\n\nfree templates & layouts -- http://www.freelayouts.com/templates/display/templates -- templates & renderings http://www.clantemplates.com/ -- http://www.comteche.com/data/templates/free_flash/show_flash/index.asp -- really helpful flash links http://moock.org/moockmarks/ -- google search http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=free+flash+html+templates+layouts&btnG=Google+Search\n\nhere's how i learned html and css\n\nwhen you come to a page on the web click VIEW at the top of your browser and click on SOURCE. if you are using internet explorer browser the html source code will open up in windows notepad. in notepad click on FILE/SAVE AS to save the page's source code to your hard drive. in internet explorer click on FILE/OPEN to open the source code in the browser. go back to notepad and remove some of the code and click save. then in internet explorer hold down the SHIFT KEY and click on the REFRESH button on the browser's toolbar to see what effect the removed source code had on the page. you will learn a hundred times faster this way.\n\nsomething to think about later is.......after you have gotten a little experience with html try doctype, xhtml, and css. then try to validate your pages. validating checks for coding errors. validating will not work unless you are using the correct doctype and the correct document encoding. http://validator.w3.org/ \n\nThis post is copyrighted (c) 2006 Dwight L.

Even though you're planning to write your website w/ a WYSIWYG program, it's good to know how HTML works, by learning HTML from its source. A good reference is the http://www.notepad.com (this features simple tutorial, advanced reference go to w3cschool) and http://www.w3schools.com/ .\n\nMy advices is:\nLearn HTML first, then CSS, then learn XHTML, then you can move on to client-side scripting, and last server-side scripting.  (To complete this journey, you may need a year or more, most people would only need to reach CSS or XHTML level which can be learnt in a few weeks, and a few months to perfection)\nDo your Hello World website with Notepad.\nTry to avoid using WYSIWYG program while making website, use simple text editor (recommended program: Notepad)\nIt is good to lay aside your burning spirit in making a website for a week or two to learn html.\nGet a good HTML program\n\nThings you should avoid:\nI don't want to restrict you in making a website, but I know that most people would prefer an informational and useful website rather than a website fully dedicated to yourself, so if this is what you're planning, think twice. If you're planning on other things, Welcome to the Underworld of Internet.\n\nA rule of thumb when choosing tutorials, if the tutorial page's layout is messy, find other tutorial site.

If your interested in the design-side etc., try a design package like Macromedia Dreamweaver, once you've learnt basic HTML - http://www.w3schools.com. These packages are "what you see is what you get", commonly no raw code involved for you, if you wish.\n\nIf you're not interested in designs, there are plenty of options like Web logs  - http://www.blogger.com, Yahoo! Geocities etc. etc.\n\nIf you make your own site, you'll need to host it. If you're not bothered about a proper "domain" address, try http://www.freewebs.com. If you want the real-deal, try using http://www.dzinersolutions.co.uk - from my personal experience, they have some quality deals (I recommend the Unix Zone Starter deal).

First I would recommend for you to install macromedia dreamweaver and Flash. Get a good tutorial book that explains go to deign a web page. First try to get some web pages done. It doesn't have to look professional. Just basic.\n\nThen test it in your local machine. When you refer the material to do all this, you will automatically be able to have a knowledge on publishing pages to  a website.\nIf you want to get the DUMMY series of books\nfor example "Website design for Dummies"

Web page making is easy but creating and managing a website is tough business. \nFirst try your hand at making simple webpages, learn html, SAM's book will be a nice place to start from\nSecond, learn Javascript, so that you can make your pages more fun and more interactive.\nThird, move up. Learn ASP, or JSP or PHP... If you are an open source freak(as am I) PHP is best for you . Its fast and its easy to learn

I like W3 schools -- they have great tutorials and it's free.\n\nI've used them to teach myself HTML and SQL and CSS.  They have other areas as well, such as XML, Javascript, etc.\n\n~ ♥ ~

I do web design myself, it is quite a lot of work sometimes, especially with dynamic pages. Look at the link below for tutorials on web design. I would recommend you learnt (X)html, javascript and PHP.\n\nhttp://w3schools.com/

this same question was asked so ill paste my previous answer:\n\n\nlearn the basics of html. lissaexplains.com gives you clear simple directions about the basics of html. you may not want to learn html but if you want to be able to customize your site the way you want it and not have to use templates than learn html. once you get the hang of html and understand it you will be able to take html codes from html help sites and alter them to fit your needs since most of the codes you use to make your page will be codes you gather from other sites and you'll have to alter them yourself to fit your site.\n\nsecondly you'll need to get either adobe photoshop or paint shop pro. paint shop pro is easier and cheaper and works just as well as adobe. you'll use that program to design your page.\nlearning html and paint shop pro or adobe are adventures all by themselves so be patient. the biggest obstacle with using paintshop pro to make web layouts is your MIND. I know it sound crazy but its true. There are hundreds of tutorials on how to use paint shp pro but if you cant use your mind and be creative then making a layout is useless.\n\nOnce you've mastered that, which may take a couple months, you can learn php which is pretty easy if you learn step by step\n\nyou can go to blog.bootlegcrayolas.com. the layout (the model and the effects) was made in painshop pro and saved as an image. and the html portion of the site is the text and the positioning of the text and the color of the texts and links and whatnot. both components came together and made that site.\n\nIf you want me to help you through out your process i will be glad to help because i know what it was like learning and how frustrating it was not having one on one help. you can email me at esha@bootlegcrayolas.com with you aim or yahoo name and i can guide you through it.

If you have no previous experience, you can go ahead and make a starting page with Yahoo! site builder, but it's best to learn HTML and CSS in order to be able to have more control over your page. After you have a basic page laid out, you can right-click and View Source to see the html for the page. Go through the simple tutorials on W3Schools.com (they have samples that you can play with) to learn how to modify and improve your page by just using the HTML editor. As always, if you have any questions about how to do anything, you can ask us here on Answers.

Most web hosting services have their own site layout tools that you can use, but honestly the best program is already on your computer.  Either Notepad (windows) or TextEdit (mac).  If you do a search on "how to" and "HTML" you should find a lot of pages on the internet that teach you HTML.  It's better to know the basics and do hard coding before moving on to professional programs.  I know this because I had an ex gf that is better with web design than I am, but she always used Dreamweaver.  However, when she went for a web designer position, they asked her one question and she didn't know the code because she was used to the program doing all the work, when it would have benefited her to learn how to hard code first.

if u want a reference book to fall back to i would recommend  java unleashd. cant remember who da publisher is though. if u want a good text for guidence through da basic parts right to da swing and other advanced stuff u r better off with ivor horton's "begining java". bt watch out u have to put in real work to really use dis book. there is also a book which has a nice online edition "thinking in java" it also includes a good introduction to OOP. so if dis is ur first foray into programming it'll b a good choice.  drop in a mail if u need anything more

W3 schools is perhaps one of the greatest free resources out there for web-oriented programming tutorials. Here's a link to their javascript section:\n\nhttp://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp\n\nIf you want something physical, the O'Rielly books host an incredible amount of knowledge for the price. O'Rielly javascript is a good buy, if you're serious about learning the language.
