+ As many people ask me the same question over and over again that how to make a home page, so I try to make this homepage that may help. Sorry, my English is not good thought, so I you see some english errors, please don't mad at me please :) Actually, HTML language is the same idea of other language that It runs by the bunch of codes. But HTML language is the easier language to learn. Here, I try to provide as much as commands that I know so far, and I hope it may help you guys :) + First, you can open any text editors, but I recommand you guys open the Notepad or Writepad to edit the command codes. If you are using Windows 95/98, NT please click on the "START" button down to your left bottom. And then click on "Programs ==> Accessories ==> Notepad or Writepad. Here is the basic form of the HTML language <html> <header> <tittle> </title> ........ </header> <body> </body> </html> + After you finish with all the commands, you can click to "File" and hit "Save As". There will be a new window that asks you three things. The "Save in" = location you want to save, you should remember this directory, because later, you need to open it to see your work. The "File name" is the name that you want to call just simple one word and follow at the end with ".html" such as mypage.html, defaul.html, index.html. The "Save as

type" is much important, and please change it to "Text Document" type. After fill out three required things, you should hit save as. BIG NOTE: Before you start, you must understand how the HTML code works. It's very simple. When you open a command you have only two brackets what you open you must close by adding a slash to the tag . Anything you type in your HTML document must be between the two tags for the tag to take effect. <Header>Header is the location where you put tittle of your homepage, discription, keywords, author, and so on...
