The Hard Way to make a New Page 1. do a rough design of the page you want first (on the back of an envelope ?) 2. work out from this where the columns will be |
| 3. note that the situation shown on the right does not work well in html - the columns should not overlap in this way |
p i c t u r e - text |

4. Open a new page in your html editor 5. Insert a table - say 3 columns and 6 rows, 760 pixels wide (you might use a border at first, or cell padding) 6. Use Page Proporties to define the text and link colours, and background of the whole page, if any 7. Align columns to where you think they should go - leave a blank column to create more space 8. Insert Images 9. Insert Title and select font, size and colour 10. Enter text - if this already exists, copy the required text and paste it into the relevant part of your table (you cannot use Word documents as webpages they have hidden characters that confuse HTML. MSWord 'Webpage' documents also have some bad control characters) The text will automatically word-wrap in the space available, and the space will automatically extend downwards to fit the quantity of text 11. Create links 12. Adjust design till you are happy - each cell of a table can have a different background colour (if you really want !), and you can vary the fonts, colours and positioning until you are happy |

13. Then upload your page to your site. Oh well, perhaps this is not so hard after all !!! |
