Hi Everyone. Let me start off by saying that this site rules and so far I see that you guys are willing to help n00bs like me I am an HTML n00b. I know nothing about the language at all. I made it through my Visual Basic Course with an A, so hopefully I will be able to understand this too. But I'm planning on opening a music myspace page for my band. And after browsing through some alot of pages, I saw that some pages were very unique. Here are some unique pages that i found http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=119278319 http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=83977841 http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=33184924 http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=8267018 I'm not asking for someone to hold my had and guide my step-by-step to do get my page to look like this. But what I need is someone to give me an idea of what is nessesary to program good pages like this. I just need someone to give me the general idea on how to do stuff like this because i'm totally new at it.
First: Get a few good and easy to use programs. (DreamWeaver - Photoshop) Second: Play around with them until you get the hang of things. Third: Tutorials Rule! So find some good ones, they will help you learn all the great things you can do. If this is your first stab at creating a site design or template, dont expect to acheive perfection the first time around. However, the more you try the more you learn. I really believe trial and error to be the best teaching tools of all time.
hey tek you're going to need intermediate level CSS to as well as html to edit a myspace profile by hand.
@missdanni I am pretty farmiliar with photoshop. And I just bought Dreamweaver. I also bought a Photoshop tutorials. But I'm having trouble finding dreamweaver tutorials. @MpyreDzirez Can I use Dreamweaver to code CSS? or is there another program for that Much Thanks to both of you for the response
Hello, You can find many tutorials here: http://www.adobe.com/support/dreamweaver/tutorial_index.html and yes, DW has CSS as well.
I second the CSS comment. I would not try dreamweaver or any of that. You need to either find a profile on some of the free profile sites - and then adapt it to what you want, or start from scratch typing CSS (and HTML, depending on what you want).
I know this is a little "off the subject", but i hear that the actual HTML is obsolete. And That it's been replaced with xHTML. Is that true?
I've pm you a link to the best myspace div tutorial out there. And if you want to view the html code of a page, you just right click it and click view source, although you'll have a lot to decipher on a myspace page.
