Creating a Webpage
OK, let's walk through the above steps in more detail.
-
Create an HTML file
An HTML file is simply a text file saved with an .html or .htm extension (i.e. as opposed to a .txt extension).
- Open up your computer's normal plain text editor (this will probably be Notepad if you're using Windows or TextEdit if you're using a Mac). You could use a specialized HTML editor such as DreamWeaver or FrontPage if you prefer.
- Create a new file (if one wasn't already created)
- Save the file as html_tutorial_example.html
-
Type some HTML code
Type the following code:

View the result in your browser
Either...
- Navigate to your file then double click on it
...OR...
- Open up your computer's web browser (for example, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Netscape etc).
- Select File > Open, then click "Browse". A dialogue box will appear prompting you to navigate to the file. Navigate to the file, then select "Open"
