Description:
A solid introduction to the intricacies of HTML, the computer language used to create Web pages, is presented in this video by the Standard Deviants, a cast of energetic young performers whose off-the-wall skits make the technical content easy to remember. Beginning with introductory comments on the Web and hypertext, the lessons quickly move into HTML itself, with illustrations and examples of how to create a simple Web page using the text editors found on almost any computer. The video does explain the workings of WYSIWYG ("what you see is what you get") editors, which write code for you, but as the emphasis throughout is on writing HTML by hand, even those who are familiar with Web-page construction can learn something about the inner workings of the code. All the essentials of creating a basic Web page are covered, including how to format text in HTML, working with colors on Web pages, and inserting graphics. There is even a presentation on how to upload the page you create onto the Web itself for publication to the world. This is a very solid introduction into HTML, and the unorthodox presentation will help some seemingly complicated material stick in the mind. --Robert J. McNamara
