7 - Creating the page

So, now you have a basic idea of how HTML tags work, we should look at creating the page we are going to use as an example.

First we need to split our page into three sections, to do this we will use a simple table with 3 rows.

The first row for the logo/Title, the second row for the links to other pages and the third row for our page content. In our example we are going to give each row a border so we can see how they are separated.

We have also included some more HTML tags. For instance, the <CENTER> tags are used to centre/center align the text/image. The <BR> tag is used to start a new line.

Below is the HTML code which will achieve this result:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Our new webpage title</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<table border="1" width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="100%"><center>This is the top row, place Logo/title here</center></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100%"><center>This is the second row, place links here</center></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100%"><p>This is the third row, place main content here<br>second line of content...</p></td>
</tr>
</table>

</BODY>
</HTML>
