HTML is a markup language. To find out all about it go to the authority, but you might want to learn XHTML after reading from the following link W3C

well, what kind of HTML codes were you looking for? I say this because there are some specialized sites out there for, say web layouts, but also ones that only deal with specific kinds of HTML codes. What did you want?

sounds funny, html codes, but if you want to learn html, you can try out http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp

This site has a good amount of info on it
http://www.mtholyoke.edu/acad/germ/workshops/HTML.html

If you browse around and search through some of the previous topics you'll find lots of links that will help you learn some HTML. I recommend www.htmlgoodies.com for a beginner. It offers HTML and then gets into advanced topics such as CSS, Javascript, PHP, and SQL.

My suggestion for you is to find a decent wysiwyg editor and create a simple web page with it. Be sure to use ase many options as you can figure out just to give you a good variety of HTML to learn from

Once you have your simple webpage created, print it out and then open the source file in any text editor like "Notepad". This will show you the code that the wysiwyg editor created. This is the HTML of the webpage. Once you have opened the HTML of the page, print it out. You can now compare the HTML to the output shown on the webpage. This may seem a little overwhelming at first but just go line by line and if you don't understand something, do a search for it on the internet or at one of the locations already provided.

There are a few topics in the tutorial forum about basic HTML:

1. HTML 101 - Web Design For Beginners : Absolute Basic HTML Writing
2. HTML 102 - Web Design For Beginners : More Basic HTML Writing
3. Good Comments Make HTML : Commenting makes HTML easier to write

Some other online HTML guides I use:

1. Webmonkey | Reference: HTML Cheetsheet
2. Lissa Explains It All
3. HTML Pit Stop
4. HTML Goodies - HTML Primer

A Few Useful Definitions:

wysiwyg editor: What You See Is What You Get editor - A useful but usually limited program that uses a visual method of designing wbpages. Eliminates the need to know HTML or CSS.

HTML: Hyper Text Markup Language - Method of adding some degree of formating to the text of a webpage and also allows for some dynamic attributes to be applied to the webpage in the form of links, forms, and images.

CSS: Cascading Style Sheet - A method of applying the same formating and layout to an entire website by having all pages use the same style sheet which is usually a seperate file. This make the task of making all of the the pages in a website uniform and simplifies the process of changing the appearence of the website by only needing to edit a single file. Used as an add-on for HTML.

I hope that this will help you as you begin the journey of learning HTML and web page design. If you have further questions, please ask us. Nearly everyone that is active in the forum has some knowledge of HTML. Many of use have mastered HTML and moved on to more advanced web programing such as PERL, PHP, ASP, JavaScript, etc... So you should get many good and quick answers to your HTML questions.

Good Luck

No disrespect meant to anybody, but going to a site such as W3C is about as hard of a start as you could possibly get. In one previous reply someone said use a WYSIWYG editor and then look at the code. That is how I got my start in HTML. That person also listed Lissa Explains It All as a link to go to. THIS IS YOUR BEST OPTION. This is simply because if you go to this site its going to look and even seem in the reading as for children but thats a good thing. When you started out reading you didn't go straight to Moby **** right? You started out with little picture books. The same is true when starting out in HTML. Through Lissa's sight she gives a descriptive tutorial of your first HTML page. Then the great thing is, her topics get as complicated as JavaScript and CSS. But before you look into these I would get a very good grasp on HTML.
God Bless You...
