Anyone know a good website for HTML guide or basics of building a webpage? just the basics how to move things around make link buttons all that.
 
You can just use a template, then do some really basic HTML to change it around...course you still have to give whoever built the template credit. Just easier then starting a page from scratch if you have the foundation.
 
it seems like i can't find how to move Texted on the page i just get information on how to center it or move it far left far right don't know how to simply push it to where i want it exactly.

and thanks for the Information thus far it is helping quit a bit.
 
For exact positioning you will need to read up on CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). It is a bit tricky to get exact positioning across browsers but there are ways to control the margins that work. For someone just starting out with HTML, CSS won't be intuitive. I suggest using a Dreamweaver type program for doing this, unless you really want to learn the nuts and bolts of HTML, in which case buy a book or two on HTML and CSS. Alos, look at webpages you like and look at their source code to see how the author made it.
 
Ok i have spend a bit more time messing around YEA i forgot to tell everyone i am working on Dreamweaver and now have a more pressing question i designed my lay out in photo shop saved it for the web and simply inserted it in as a image and centered it. I can change static texted thats not a problem but for my class i need to privide a link so the question is how do you overlay link texted over a image ie how do i put a link text button in my page layout. i know how to make a link nexted to my lay out(image) but not over it . i hope you understand. Yea CSS would be to much just looking for the esay way the class is realy dumb but sence i have to do a webpage i might as well learn how to do it right. extra work for me. but atlest i will not look like Crap. O and the teacher DOESN"T know Shite.

Dreamweaver imagemap maker is very easy to use. Try adding the link image to your PhotoShopped image and then make an imagemap in Dreamweaver. Your page will be a bandwidth pig but will be easy to make.
