Ok, I may venture off into this realm. And I'm VERY challenged in this area. Any good starting points? I have WS_FTP for uploading files/pics/etc, and that's about all I have.
Thanks!
Fred

Where are you putting your website? Are you using a free account like geocities or similar that offers an online editor? Are you using space your isp offers and will need to edit it locally before uploading?

If you need software go to www.tucows.com (http://www.tucows.com) (the ultimate collection of windows software) and look for software to edit your page under windows html menus.

If you have any questions you can email me and I can try to help you further.

Fred,

I used to recommend learning HTML then finding examples of what you want to do on the web and looking through that HTML to figure out how it is done. That's practically impossible nowadays so your best bet is to go get an editor like Deon suggested and play around with it. They are usually very simple (not much more than a word processor).

A good program for learning HTML is HotDog pro. I believe it's shareware, ,so you can use it for a while. For online HTML tutorials and help you can go to www.w3schools.com (http://www.w3schools.com)
