Re: Beginners Guide: Introduction to HTML

Nicely written article Carsey. I must admit however, as someone who has dabbled in both advanced HTML and other online coding syntaxes, i found your article hard to analyse as I knew the stuff too well... if you get my drift( I found it hard to check how easy it would be for a complete novice to use the article basically) But thats nothing against the article however, and i checked the code and it works fine(both by sight and by actually testing!!!)

One thing i think would really make the article a bit better, is if it covered a bit of a wider base of HTML. I'm not talking about anything especially complex, but just something a bit more complex, such as colour, images etc - just so someone could, if they wished, write a very basic website for themselves.

One other little thing i take issue with, as its a bit out of date is this

"If you visiting a website, then there is a very high chance that it will have been written in HTML." - in this new age of web 2.0 pages, this isnt strictly true anymore, although they often have a backbone of HTML to ensure anyone can get onto their site. I realise the statement you made is less ambigious, but.....

Regards,
Joe
