Well this is a quick guide for HTML. Which stands for hypertext mark-up language. It's an internet language for displaying, well pretty much anything. You can use tables to reshape your layouts or display gifs (animated pictures). It's very useful, some html is used for my blog but not much. So let's start with the ability to write, not as easy as you think. Open frontpage or whatever editor you have. Then select the view code or html tab at the bottom. Now you should see this if you use frontpage.
As you can see everyting is between tags like <HTML> and </HTML>. The difference between these body tags is that one is the start tag and ones the end tag. It's important to put the slash"/" because that tells the competer it's then end tag. If the slash isn't there the content in between the two tags won't work. Notice that the two "body" tags end in between the "html" tags. That's the way it works. Think about in a parent child sort of way. Now to write something to the screen put.
That code will do this when you preview it: Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah
The two "p" tags tell it to put this text to the screen. There are tons of other ways to do this also but I don't want to get into that, it would take to long. Now a really cool tag you can use is "marquee". It scrolls the text across the screen which looks pretty cool. Usefull for banners and other things like that.

To change the color put <font color="0000FF">Word</font> right in between the "p" tags. Your result is right above, in the word color. So the whole thing would look like......
| <body> <p><font color="0000FF">Hello World</font></p> </body> |
Not to hard is it? Keep in mind that the border surronding it is a table. Not actually part of what YOU wrote. So I'll teach you about them in part two. That's all for now.
