View>Page Source

 

The best way to learn how to do good html is to see how others do it. When you visit a web page that you like, use the View > Page Source to see how the designer did the html.

Use your cursor to go to "View" in the tool bar at the top of the browser page, and then select "Page Source" or "Source", depending on whether you are using Netscape or Explorer.

(This graphic shows a Netscape browser toolbar with "View" selected and the "Page Source" highlighted. Selecting "Page Source" will direct the browser to display the html code in a new window.)

Many pages these days will begin with a lot of code to describe a java script. Even if the web author did not add any java script, any page posted on Geocities has the Geocities java script automatically added for the "g" watermark. For this class, just ignore these codes that refer to "script" and focus on the tags that you recognize.
