Q: What is HTML?
A: HTML stands for HyperText Markup
Language. HTML is a standard for formatting documents in
a manner that web browsers can understand them and recreate them.
The World Wide Web Consortium sets the official HTML standards,
which can be found online here.
Q: How do I create HTML?
A:
HTML is not a file format, but rather a set of codes that you
include around information that tell HTML-aware programs how to
format the information on the screen. HTML files are plain text
files, they are not wordprocessor documents or spreadsheets or
images, even though you may link to these files from within HTML
webpages.
HTML can be created by hand
in any program capable of editing textfiles, however most of our
customers find that it is much faster to use an HTML editor, a
program which is aware of HTML and the formatting codes, to create
their webpages. A list of a few HTML editors is available below.
We do
NOT provide application support for any specific
HTML editor. If you have questions about an application or HTML-specific
questions, please contact the vendor or locate one of the numerous
online discussion groups and ask your question there.
