Create A Personal Web Page
Create A Personal Web Page
By Kevin Little



This program was written using JavaScript. To be able to use this program to create your personal web page you will need to be viewing this with a JavaScript-capable browser (eg. Netscape 2.x). If you are not sure if your browser supports JavaScript, place your mouse over the dark blue text below (Do not click on it ...). If a message appears in the status bar at the bottom of the screen you can use this program:


Place your mouse over this link to see if you can use this program


Furthermore, please be aware that your site cannot be saved using conventional methods. Please be aware of this before throwing objects at your computer in frustration. If you really love your design and want to cherish it forever you can use the Screen Capture function available in many image programs like PaintShop Pro. For more information, see the Help file.

Now that we have that settled, let's begin !

This program is very easy to use. Simply choose your options in each of the sections below. If you fail to fill in a box or miss a couple of options they will be set to default values. When you are done, click on the button labeled "Create Site" at the bottom. After a couple of seconds your page will be created and be displayed on top of this one. To return to this page close the new window (Windows 95 users click on the 'X' in the top right hand corner of the screen).

A link to a Help file is provided in each section and examples are provided where appropriate. If you have never designed a Web page before it is a good idea to go there first to understand the terms used.

Note: If you are planning on using images, be sure to type in the absolute path to the file. For example, if the image file is called "mydog.gif" and it is in the "c:/photos" directory, type:

/c|/photos/mydog.gif


Use the menu below to navigate through the various categories. When you are done with each section, click on "Return to Menu" to move on to the next section.

ENJOY !
