    So I'm just getting started building my website so HTML is all new. I using a free web hosting service, Web Starts, I did not want to pay for web hosting until I learn how to build my page properly I may be wrong but it seems as though I can only use their web design interface to build my website. I can edit the html from the interface but if I preview the page and look at the source code, there is a lot more there code there. I would like to build the site directly using HTML and not have the use their design tools.

    Should I look a different web hosting provider?

    I this a typically issue with all web hosting providers that use a web design interface?

    I've used a free web hosting service called 000webhost. They will let you build your site directly using HTML.

    Regardless of the host provider, if you are using a web builder provided by the host you will always find more coding info than you might have entered :)

    Indeed that is generally the nature of the beast. Most 'web builders' also crapping out some of the most horrific code there is -- much akin to WYSIWYGS like Frontpage or the preview pane in Dreamweaver, the only thing you can learn from them is how not to build websites.

    If it wasn't for the ignorance of the average beginner, such tools would have gone the way of the Dodo decades ago... but with there always being new nubes there's always someone for the sleazeballs who make these tools to prey upon.

    ... and that's literally all 'web builders', WYSIWYGS and even many CMS are: nube predation.

    Check your site documentation (or the control panel on your site) to see if you have an FTP login. You write the code on your computer, using a program like Notepad++, then upload it to your site using an FTP client like FileZilla. To test it before you upload it, install a web server on your computer, like xampp.

    If your current host doesn't allow FTP it's time to get a new host, but I've never heard of one that doesn't (except, maybe, for some free hosts).

    Use web developer tools ,
    it's better if you contact with your developer.

    I think you should use web designing tools with html and view your code using ctrl+u.
