Master some basic HTML (hypertext markup language)
HMTL allows other computers to “read” your files by means of browser software
Most common browsers used: Internet Explorer, Netscape
Basic HTML is easy to learn
Lots of web sites available
Inexpensive guides also available in many bookstores
Important to learn HTML in order to:
“Steal” code
Fix problems that may occur

Here are some WYSIWYG ("What You See Is What You Get") Programs:
To Buy:
Dreamweaver
Frontpage
Free:
Netscape Communicator
BBEdit Lite
Word processing programs such as Microsoft Office also have a "Save as HTML" feature. These can work, but are often temperamental, and the end product is often less than satisfactory.
