HTML (HyperText
Markup Language) is the programming language used to write web
documents. This language is not difficult to learn and you do not have
to be a programmer to understand and use it. In most instances, the
files produced with HTML are static, or unchanging, and are displayed
to the viewer by their browser just as the file was created. However,
there are ways to create more interactive, dynamic pages. If you are
interested in creating something more interactive, you will want to
check out the sections on CGI
Scripts, PERL,
Javascript, and
Java.
Here are some
helpful links below that will teach you about HTML and illustrate some
of the considerations involved in designing a web page.
