I know html code but am unsure of where to enter it on my cache page. I have edited my cache page a little and was successful in changing the font color using html. However, I cannot figure out why I can't change the background color (I know the html code for this, I just don't know where to enter it maybe?). I have entered the code for background but it isn't working. I know the site already has a background color, how do I "override" it? I am placing the html the only place I know to, in the text box where we write our descriptions, but something isn't taking. I would also like to add a graphic to the page (not where you can download a photo). Here's hoping my question makes sense.

I'm glad it helped you. I understood none of it. I keep telling myself I will study it and learn but I know I never will.

Don't feel bad, if I didn't know the basics most of this wouldn't have made any sense to me either. Learning html is not hard (no matter what you've heard!). I was forced to learn it in school, even though my major was graphic design, not web design. I guess they didn't want us to look too stupid if one of our clients wanted us to design a web page as well. Our textbook for this course was "HTML: A Beginners Guide" by Wendy Willard. This book makes it easy. You can check it out at Mid-Continent Library or amazon.com has it for 20 bucks. After the first couple of chapters I was able to start my own personal web site, what fun!!!
Again, thanks for the info.

A very neat way to learn HTML one bit at a time is from
http://www.e-pixs.com/quick.html

That link is to a quick-start page. If you scroll to the bottom, tere are tutorials that teach one concepts at a time (text, or images, or....) and they have a practice board to try stuff out.

Try it. Of all the tutorial sites, this is one of the few that breaks it down into small bites.

How about:

HTML Goodies

Hey, that's where I learned HTML!

[ajayhawkfan]

Are you really this way?

Or just a wanna be comic

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

HONEST!!!! I am just a little more advanced then typing with the hunt and peck method. I wish I was not joking about it. LOL

[Team Samoyed]

Ahh, so that where the talent comes from 

I found that site in it's infancy, now it's sorta commercial, but still a good step by step tutorial site, which also includes more than HTML.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Ya, now it has banners all over the place...

[ajayhawkfan]

I like the comic image you project, don't get rid of it.

It's you man !!

I'm not kidding. I very weak on the computer.

The easy way is to use a higer level program that will generate the html while I just worry about content
Word or Front Page are fine....
I do still end up editing the code to take out all the 'extra' stuff they put in the script.

Oh, come on, that's the easy way...

Plus they really DO junk up the code.

I refuse to use a webpage generator, goes against my principles
