Type your text, add your photos, play with icons on the menu bar. Just explore and have fun. Once you start working with your pages it is a good idea to Save your work every 3 minutes. When naming pages give them short names, like this page is saved as "web.html". RIGHT CLICK is your friend.

INSTALLING SOME
"COUNTERS" CODES WHEN USING NETSCAPE COMPOSER: How to INSTALL the counter code: Click on "Insert" choose HTML Tag then insert the code, click OK. Right after you save and publish the page with the NEW counter code, go back to composer, right click on the counter and select "image properties", check "leave image at original location" then click "OK". Save and publish the page again. After that, you won't have to worry about that page's counter anymore. |
