Html stands for Hyper Text Markup Language, and there are numerous tutorials to get you started off... I'll link to a few lists of them in a moment...

As I mentioned to Burning Gundam, you have your very own Sr. Web Designer/Developer at your service; and I barter too! Take a l66k at what I have so far on my project page here:

http://df-21.net/projects/cory_buford/

then feel free to check out my qualifications here:

http://www.gwmo.com/qualifications

and let me know what you need. If you'd like, I could even send over a template to get you started. All you'd have to do is plug in the information specific to your project; just let me know.

Quid-pro-quo, if you could help me get my level working, so I don't have to reinvent the wheel, I'd greatly appreciate it.

May the Force be with you...always...

You can also try doing it yourself. Microsoft Word, Microsoft Frontpage, Dreamweaver, Cold Fusion (or whatever it's called), etc etc can all generate web pages in the HTML format. (Though I HIGHLY do not recommend Word... legend has it the HTML files it generates suck. Smile)

Or, you could edit the files by hand in Notepad, although this means you have to learn how to code in HTML... but that offers the most control over the content of your webpage.

Also, if you decide to learn HTML you may come across something known as "CSS". I suggest you try to take the time to learn this too, if you can. It will make your webpages tons better if you take advantage of it.

And then if you want to REALLY go all out, you can try learning some JavaScript, which will allow you to add (relatively) dynamic content to your pages if you wish...

BTW, I suggest Google to look up HTML tutorials. Smile

Of course, this is all moot if you don't want to learn it... Sad

BTW, I've put my website in my sig if you wanna check it out.

I think in the case of something as simple as a project page, Microsoft Word would do fine.

It'll work for this, but I would reccomend trying to find another program... Try to see if you can get "free time" at your school's computer lab. Most have a full quite of content creation tools, including at least one web site building tool, such as MS Frontpage.

I can agree. Since you've already learned something about MS-DOS batch files, it shouldn't be that difficult to learn HTML. Notepad is what I've used for writing HTML...

You simply link each page to one another. Just remember the address each will have when uploaded!

Upload a single page to wherever you're having the site hosted, then check its address...

You don't use the entire link, like http://df-21.net/blah/foo.html
That's called an absolute link.

Use relative links, like so:

foo.html
../blah/foo.html
