Start NotePad (or whatever), then copy and paste the following into a blank document:-
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>My Spaceports Page</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<CENTER>
<H1>Welcome</H1>
<H2>to my site at Spaceports</H2>
<H3>which will be all about stuff</H3>
</CENTER>
<P>I'll be adding pages here shortly, so please call back soon.</P>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Here's a quick explanation of what all that stuff means. If you don't care, you can skip
this bit.
Everything between <HTML> and </HTML> is the HTML document.
Everything between <HEAD> and </HEAD> is a special instruction to
the browser and not displayed on the actual page.
The text inbetween <TITLE> and </TITLE> is displayed in the
browser's title bar. It's the title of the page (no surprises there). It should really
be something more descriptive of course.
Everything between <BODY> and </BODY> is displayable content for
the main page.
Everything between <CENTER> and </CENTER> is centred
horizontally.
The text between <H1> and </H1> is displayed as a level 1 (the
largest) heading.
The text between <H2> and </H2> is displayed as a level 2
heading.
The text between <H3> and </H3> is displayed as a level 3
heading.
The text between <P> and </P> is displayed as a paragraph.
You can edit any of the text between a > and a < without doing any harm
but not between a < and a >
So, you can change the word Welcome, but not the word CENTER - unless you know
what you're doing, which if you did, you wouldn't have read this far.
