Basic Tags
You'll need a few basic tags to get started with in order to have your page browser ready .. These include but aren't limited to - links, image tages, e-mail links,and anchors. I'll give you the coding needed for those ..
Tags needed to start a page
This is your basic link for going from one page to another within Geocities, you only need to put the burb/number/yourfile.html and it'll go there .. anywhere else out side of Geocities, you need to put the http://www.domain.com in order to get there
Image Tags
For image tags, I strongly suggest using the height, width tags - without those, your page will take forever to load because the browser has to wait until the images load, then fits the text around it .. the alt is what you've 'named' your file - for people that use text only browsers - they can at least 'see' what they are missing.
Linking With An Image
For images that you have linked to a URL you can control the border with any value - I generally use zero and that is my personal preference.
Mailto Link
That is your basic e-mail link - some people suggest typing out your address in the clickable area so people that print pages can see the address as printers don't seem to pick them up otherwise ..
Anchors
Anchors are handy little bits of coding that let visitors pop from one section of your page to another .. above is what you use next to the link at the top of your page - what you use below is where you would like your visitor to end up ..
