Introduction

This free HTML programming and Web site design tutorial will provide you with all the information you require to create an exciting Web Page or Web site design, suitable for both the complete beginner and more advanced website creator. This free HTML tutorial will show you how to use HTML tags

Students of courses such as T171,T170 and TT208 of the Open University ( OU ), will find many of the pages of great interest. The OU does not go into much detail about the actual hyper text markup language code required, in courses T171 and T170, relying on Netscape Composer, to provide this code for you. If you wish to create something more than a simple web page or site, then learning the actual code is essencial.

Hi welcome to my new tutorial on programming a Web page and creating a web site. This tutorial should be helpful for students of the OU (Open University) course T171,T170 and TT208, and the easy step by step instructions make it easy for the complete beginner.

Many of you will already be familiar with my well established Smalltalk programming site for M206 students, and my newer C programing site for T223 students.

There are many tutorials on the web on on HTML programming, so why this one? I am a relative newcomer to HTML programming, therefore I personally know the difficulties that a beginner can encounter. The early tutorials are aimed at the complete beginner and designed to guide you through these difficulties.

Then beyond the HTML basics to show you how to build the Web site features that you want most, from password-protected pages to visitor counters.
