Fourth html class: Thursday 4th October 2002

HTML Editors

These allow us to enter our tags into an "edit window", Then giving us a "viewing" element within this software package. You should do a search for HTML editors on Tucows .. there are many variations available. Other software packages, such as: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Lotuc, Word Perfect and many others. They will all allow you to save your work as file type ".html(1)". (Personally I have always used Microsoft Word - and then saved the work as .txt. This does not give me any prompts or assistance. I have to find errors myself).

Review

FTP - File Transfer Protocol - find a software - search FTP client. You must have FTP software in order to transfer your html files to the internet. (Instructor suggested TCP/IP. I use WS FTP, which I downloaded from TuCows several years ago (on the advice of Sentex, who are my ISPs (Internet Service Providers). I like this FTP because it gives a loud signal when the file has gone across and very definite indications for connection and transfer.

You must ask your ISP for instructions to upload your own web-site. Usually you are already paying for a website and the amount of space they have provided varies from 5 to 20 megabytes average. (Normally you will find it impossible to upload without actually being on the telephone and speaking with your ISP tech. I guess this is for security reasons.

Some sites provide "free" website space. Such as Angelfire. They do ask for your personal information - street address, telephone number etc. I do not care for this, as they build mailing lists and this information alone is very valuable to them - and other marketers. Do a search for free hosting accounts/sites.

UNORDERED/ORDERED LISTS

These list commands will cause automatic tabulation, indents, numerical or alphabetical notations See p. 138 in the HTML for the World Wide Web by Elizabeth Castro as follows:-

Unordered - has various bullets

<UL>

< LI > This is bulleted
< LI > And so is this
< LI > And so is this
< /UL >

This is bulleted
And so is this
And so is this

>OL< types = A, a, I, i. >/OL<

This is alphabetic type ordered list in lower case:

Note: The Following Text typed from our Text Book:
HTML For the World Wide Web, Fourth Edition, by Elizabeth Castro .. Chapter 8, Page 138:

"Unordered lists are probably the most widely used lists on the Web. Use them to list any series of items that have no particular order, such as favourite web sites or names:

Page Whacker, version 12.0-Features

New or improved features marked with a solid bullet.
(All features may show the same bullets in some browsers)

One click page layout.
Spell checker for 327 major languages
Image retouching plug-in
Special HTML filters
Unlimited Undo's and Redo's
Automatic book writing

This is a UL type=square.

Counter

img src="http://counter.put server in here eg:golden.net/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?ft=9|frgb=69;139;50|tr=0|trgb=0;0;0|wxh=15;20|md=6|dd=A|df=gneta.dat"

I have deleted the angle brackets from this counter to prevent it from interfering with my own ISP counter.

This is my own counter, which reads:  When it begins counting, the formula disappears and even in the source text it appears as an Arabic numeral. My ISP provided this counter and the formula, which is strange, as with the exclamation mark I would have thought it would be just a note in the code.

TABLES

1	2	3	4	5
1	2	3	4	5
1	2	3	4	5
