I prepared this for several reasons:
  1. I teach computer courses where I expect students to learn basic HTML.
  2. I am frequently asked by others, not my current students, about such matters.
  3. I see too many books on the topic that overwhelm you right away with a gazillion options, which can overwhelm a beginner.
  4. I want to organize this even for myself.

Please keep these things in mind as you explore this. There truly is a bewildering array of possibilities and details that could be included. I want to keep it down to the very basics that can be of assistance in constructing a good, basic Web Page.

As a result, I will not try to be everything for everybody. This is for beginners who want to get their feet wet before trying more herculean things like image maps and frames and Java scripts.
