I am one of those people that use a program like Microsoft FrontPage or
Dreamweaver for a HTML editor. This is great but sometimes they do not do
what you want and you need to insert some basic HTML into your project. I

these into your web to see what happens.
Here is a basic web page start.
This is where you basically put everything. Insert your links in the body.

window.
If I change the word _blank to _top
it will open in the same window.

I hope this article has helped. I tried to write it as
simple as possible because I know what its like to try and learn HTML. I
