Quickly Learn Web Page Basics

This is the best 115 pages that I've read! I didn't have the time to read a 500 page book on creating web pages with HTML 4 or Frontpage 2000. So I bought this book because I could do the exercises in it quickly and it was focused on tools that I already had with Windows98: Microsoft FrontPage Express, Personal Web Server, and the Web Publishing Wizard. After setting up these tools, you'll be off and running learning about text placement, backgrounds, graphics, multimedia, hyperlinks, and tables for an "Orchid Club" home page. And guess what, IT'S FUN, FAST AND EASY. By following the step by step instructions, you'll understand the basic concepts of creating a web page of your own. This book will take you from creating a home page in FrontPage Express, all the way to publishing your page on a Web Server. But beware: you will only be building a very basic web page. This book doesn't attempt to teach detailed HTML, the language behind all web pages. But you can learn HTML from various Internet sites or other books if you are interested. When you are done with this book, you'll have enough knowledge to build your own personal home page and put it on the Internet for everyone to see. From here, you could learn HTML to enhance your web page, or use products like Microsoft FrontPage 2000 to design a more sophisticated web site.
