There are many ways of building a web site if you want one. Even if you
don't know HTML there are easy ways to build a page for the web. Quite
a few sites are available that offer a template with which to build a page.
Here is a simple way of building a web page using tools that are available
for free.
There is a freeware program called
Nvu
that can be used to easily build a page. It is a WYSIWG (what you
see is what you get) program. It is available for download from the Nvu web
site:
With
Nvu
you are free to place anything wherever you want,
without the restrictions of a template. Doing tables is easy, and you can
even nest them (place one inside another) if you want. For example, the
brown border here is done by simply placing one table with a yellow background
inside another table with a brown background.
Placing graphics where you want them and sizing them is easy.
Links are easy to create, and a horizontal line is just a click away.
You can use
boldface
,
italics
or
underline
,
or
all three at once
.
Indenting pargraphs can be accomplished with a single click
of the mouse.

Bulleted lists are easy:
-
and can be accomplished
-
with a single click.
-
The same applies
-
to numbered lists.
Nvu
even includes a spell checker.
If you do know HTML or want to learn HTML,
Nvu
has a built in HTML code editor. It also has several tools for the more
experienced web page designer - a CSS editor, a Java Script console, etc.
