Are you a person who is looking for a great HTML tutorial site? Then you should visit this site, Lissa Explains It All. This is supposed to be for fourth graders, but...you know what? Who says you have to be only in fourth grade to receive simplified HTML help? What about us adults? I think this is for us too!

I was very impressed when I first stumbled upon this site. I decided to look for html help on the Internet. I used the keywords "free html help" in a Yahoo search bar. That is how I found this particular site, and can be found searching in Google, Ask.com and others.

The URL to the Lissa Explains it All HTML guides is as follows:

http://www.lissaexplains.com/basics.shtml

I was very impressed because this website came at a time when I desperately needed the help (and STILL do!!). I wanted very much to be able to read the table code in my website so I could figure out exactly where to place the JavaScript (i.e. Google Adsense ads) codes that I wanted to place on my web pages.

Those who end up visiting the Lissa Explains it all website will be as impressed as I was. Not only can you get help learning how to read the table codes, but she actually teaches you step by step how to MAKE a table using html. For example, she teaches you what the “Table Tag” is and she also explains how to make your tables the color you want them and with the type of border you want them and more.

Those who visit Lissa Explains it all can also view the step by step HTML basics guide, which there are seven steps of in all. In these steps guides you will learn about creating web pages right from the very beginning. For example, you will learn how a web page is, and for those who are extreme beginners she tells you what a URL is.

On the Lissa Explains it All site she also explains very clearly how to make the pages of your website more popular and how to increase the traffic to your site. Other items she teaches you about websites is how to make them more attractive and interactive for users. Along with all this she helps you organize your web pages and guides you through the entire process of HTML.

I say if you are looking for a great beginners HTML guide this is one of the best places to go. It’s not only useful for children, but it is also useful for us adults who struggle for hours and hours on end trying to crack the HTML code-which at times can seem more overwhelming than cracking the Divinci Code.

Does anyone else have any links for good beginners HTML sites? I am looking for a site to point people to in some articles I am writing for beginners. I don't want to get into teaching HTML so I need a good place to direct them. Hopefully the other site will agree to some form of partnership Smiling

I learned the basics here:

The only problem I have with it now is that the page is covered with ads and links, but it's still a good tutorial - just a bit hard to get around. Smiling
