html tips

[FreeK]

ok, in school im starting a webpage design class, we are starting html now, and maybe javascrpit later

i was wondering if anyone can give me some tips so i can be a bit of a helper in my class

a few questions though

how to add:
pictures?
videos?

thats it, for now, ill post more as i get them

btw, this is posted here cuz i didnt know if it should be in programming or not, so move if needed

700th post!!!

ok this is how you put an image onto your page:

<img src = "jim.gif" align="right">

the first bit (,img src ="jim.gif) is where your page will get your pic and what its looking for

The second (align="right">) is obviously where u want it aligned on the right left center etc...

And for videos:

This is how you embed them ... i think ,the end bit is either true or false as to whether it starts automatically i think
<EMBED SRC="MYVIDEO.MPG" WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=200 AUTOSTART=TRUE>

and the link to the video is:

<A HREF="MYVIDEO.MPG">Look at the Video[/url]

the "look at the video" bit is what they will be clicking on to get to it, and the <A HREF and [/url] is starting and ending the hyperlink make sure to put this in

peace out 

EDIT these should work but i suggest you test them before helpin out in class, i just remembered them from my HTML classes lol

To add text put
<p>your text here</p>

Bold is <B></B> italics is <I></I> and underlined is <U></U> IN lowercase LETTERS.

Different color font:
<font color="#XXxxxx"></font>
The "#XXxxxx" is the hexadecimal color code.

To put something in but not embed it, you put <noembed>your html things code here</noembed>

Alignment:
<center></center>
I don't know left and right...I tested <left>and <right> and neither work XD

To add music you put
<embed src="link to music here" width=xxx height=xx autostart=true(or false) loop=true(or false)>

Decy its not [/url] that's bbc. Html would be </url>.
To add text put
<p>your text here</p>

Bolt is italics is and underlined is .

Umm...
To add music you put
<embed src="filename.mid" width=xxx height=xx autostart=true(or false) loop=true(or false)>

Ah poo sorry lmao two symbols off, i think it was a good attempt hehe

oh um also ... if you wanna out your items in a groupbox i believe it is <fieldset> before the text/item and </fieldset> after it, the html basics are pretty simple tbh

edit:  um im trying to change the [/URL] thing in edit but it says that is is actually < /A> i thing the forum is seeing our code and trying to use it for something lol your underlined stuff is messed up
