Foreword by the authors
The intention with these tutorials is not to provide a means of training someone to become a professional Web designer.

Tutorials alone cannot achieve this as "good design" is, we believe, in the creative side of all of us but has to be developed by the combination of experience and "a good eye"
for what looks right in a particular context.

We aim to provide an easy to follow guide through the quirks and pitfalls of Web
authoring, allowing a complete beginner to progress to a level where they can create
a Webpage similar in complexity to the one you are looking at now.

How to use these tutorials
Firstly, it should be pointed out that these tutorials do not teach anything other than HTML authoring. To produce a tutorial which taught the principles of directory structure and everything you need for the variety of graphics packages would equate to one of the Tasks of Hercules.
Although, as we continue to develop this project, the areas covered upon the site will digress to cover a multitude of techniques.

In addition, it should be stressed that the terminology used is, in many cases, that which we have decided would be easiest for the beginner to consume, rather than strictly technical. The technicalities and accurate terminology can be found elsewhere on this site.

The tutorials run in the order which we believe is appropriate for progressive learning.


Each exercise has accompanying files in zip format for download and offline reference, and each of the tutorials can be accessed straight from the menu to the right along with the full downloads page and the HTML tags glossary.

We hope you find these tutorials useful and informative and would appreciate any feedback via our response form
