Website Megathread

Apparently I got addicted to website coding, so to see how many people like making websites, I decided to make this thread.



Coding a website:

Websites are made from HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
also optional is JavaScript for interactive and custom animations

The bodys of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript would look something like this:

HTML:
Quote
<!DOCTYPE: html>
<html>
<head>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheet.css"/>
<script type='text/javascript' src='script.js'></script>
<title>Title Here</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Text Goes Here</p>
</body>
</html>

CSS:
Quote
p {
color: red;
}

JavaScript:
Quote
$(document).ready(function() {

$("p").append("<p>Text Goes Here</p>");

});

How to code a website:

There's plenty of websites and videos to help you start coding your own website.

Lets start with HTML...

The p for means paragraph.
With this you can right text with it.

Quote
<p>My very own text!</p>

Outcome:
Quote
My very own text!

The b means bold.
With this you can make strong text.

Quote
<b>Bold Text</b>

Outcome:
Quote
Bold Text

I can update the topic later if needed.

I think you forgot JavaScript, Ajax, ASP.NET and ASP, and PHP

I will include those later

i learned a whole lot over the course of a year by just doing things myself, web development isn't exactly hard, it's just tedious

Code: [Select]
something important about html

you can't use line breaks normally

you have to use [br] to skip to the next line
it's just as tedious as it sounds (you can also use [hr] for a horizontal line)

also html files can be made in notepad although it has to start with
Quote
<!DOCTYPE [i think something is supposed to be here but i'm not sure. replace this with just "html"]>
<head>

[INSERT YOUR STUFF HERE]

</head>

no it doesn't, try it
it's not 1999 anymore lmfao

Change jquery to JavaScript, because jquery is just a JavaScript library.
Ajax isn't a language
ASP is basically just the old version of asp.net, and is more of a framework than a language

If you want to name everything that can be used, you'll be here for a while

you just have to save it the filetype used for html

There's a lot of things that aren't required for it to function, but won't validate without it. Pretty sure doctype is one of them

html is the gateway drug to real coding

took webpage design for 6 months
I hated it, we used Dreamweaver from CS3 (2007), and it had no support whatsoever and broke in the middle of the lesson. The teacher just made us try and bypass everything that broke and it was loving terrible.

Ohh
I stand corrected then

pretty accurate
i'm in a fundamentals comp sci class (even though I signed up for AP comp sci, getting that fixed thankfully) and the most they start you out with as a prelude to actual coding is HTML. it's easy as stuff; hell, BBCode is a lot like it, if you look at it:
  • <b></b> and [b][/b]
  • <hr> and [hr]
  • <li></li> and [li][/li]
etc
