    I can teach you.Just drop a Mail.

    You can go to this link where you get a proper way to learn HTML.

    First of all you need to know how you want to be taught HTML.

    The two methods I've seen are using a bare bones approach and a WYSIWYG (What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get) editor, both of which I'll give you an example of.

    Realize that if you want someone to teach you HTML you're probably going to have to take a class at one point or another, rather than having somebody type to you over the internet, not knowing if you understand what they're typing or not.

    Another interesting phenomena on the internet is when you want to learn HTML from somebody but instead get someone who is writing to a large audience of people--you might find yourself inundated with information on 'how to do' HTML--basically what you get from any web-site, but with each one having a different emphasis on preference on one style or another.

    Also, I'm making assumptions on how much you know about computers in general.

    The 'Bare Bones' approach usually involves these few steps.

    1) Open Notepad.

    2) Type (or paste) in basic html code.

    3) Save the file as "yourhtmlname.htm" when you exit notepad.

    The first trick in typing basic html code is to realize that there are a few things that don't change no matter how much the people who wrote the standard to hypertext markup language may be updating it.

    These things are included in a basic single page HTML document:

    --snippet start (start selecting here):

    <head> <title>Your title</title> </head> <body>This is the content of your page</body>

    --snippet end (stop selecting and copy here).

    Most code (that is, not text) in the html code are referred to as tags. You may notice that there is a pattern in each tag you see in the above snippet. Most tags in HTML have starting and terminating HTML tags: <starttag></endtag>.

    Another of what I call 'basic' html knowledge is putting an image in your html page.

    <img src="someimage.gif">

    An important thing to learn with the bare bones approach is to gather snippets from other pages--though most will have used scripts to not have such a bare bones look. Scripts are alternate language that work inside of html to make images clickable, give menus, etc. What gave me an idea of how html works is copying and pasting different snippets into the pages I was creating.

    A decent html snippets site is:

    http://www.webthang.co.uk/codebank/codebank.asp

    What I think of as a good example or introduction to HTML are the links specified at wotsit.org:

    http://www.wotsit.org/search.asp?page=2&s=internet

    The WYSIWYG method:

    This bare bones approach has helped me and is the method I prefer over the other method, as far as learning goes. Some WYSIWYG editors are very helpful but very constrained in what the programmers thought was a good idea to put in as far as features that could be added to web-pages.

    A good example of an online WYSIWYG editor is Yahoo GeoCities html editor PageBuilder:

    Hypertext Markup Language, it is the language used to specify how a browser should display a Web page. HTML is a markup language, as opposed to a programming language, meaning that it contains codes that say how a page should be formatted, but does not contain procedural code.
