']['/-\|3€|_$

so, tables, tables are used in many websites.
they help organize .  To make a tale you would use the table tag <table> this is followed by the table row tag <tr> and the table data tag <td> .  To make a cell longer than normal you add the colspan attribute <td colspan="5"> and you can do the same thing to rows <td rowspan="3"> . Also every table has a default border which you can change the size of with the border tag <table border="0">

looks like i forgot to talk about fonts. To change the font of some text you use the <font> tag. the color size and font are decided by attributes like the color, and face attribues. example.

<font face="wintermute" color="#addcee">

your text here

</face>

so lately we learned about how to make images appear on the web, you do this by using the tag <img> and putting the src attribute inside it with a path to the file. for example

<img src="images/example/yourimage.png">

the only images that work are .jpg, .gif and .png and out of those i like .png the best because it supports transparency

web design, links -_-

So, today in my class,we learned how to make links in html using the anchor tag (<a></a>). It is really easy and useful all you have to do is put the text or graphic you want to be the hotspot of the link in between the opening and closing of the <a> tag and add the attribute href="urlofwebsite" inside of the <a> part

Web design blog post three

So today in Web Design we learned how to do alignments, change the widths, and change colors of certain parts of our web pages. To do this you use attributes. Attributes are words that go inside of the tags, for example: <body bgcolor="#000000" text="#000000"> <hr width="90%" align="right"> etc. That is what we learned today.

Web design blog post 1: TAGS!


So, lately we learned the four basic HTML container tags that are needed in every web page. <html>,<head>,<title>,<body>. then of course we learned how to close them by just putting a slash in front of the tag name (</html>, </head>, </title>, </body>). If you have ever used forum tags like ([QUOTE][/QUOTE] etc.) they are basically the same thing but with angle brackets (><). The "<html>" tag is telling the browser where the code ends and begins. The "<head>" tag defines the website info that you don't see on the page (the stuff that shows up in a search engine, title, description etc.) and includes the "<title>" tag that defines the title you  see at the top of your browser. The last basic tag you need is "<body>" which contains what you see on the web page, links, text, pictures, all of that goes here. When you finish with each space just close the tag and move on. That is pretty much what we learned last week and it was pretty easy to understand.
