Well if you're using JUST windows Notepad, you need background knowledge on HTML.

Your friend probably knows how to do these homepages from scratch in notepad. You can look around on yahoo or google for some tutorials.

(At some point, someone will probably suggest W3Schools - avoid them, they have many subtle errors and their examples avoid best practise wherever possible)

1. Open up Notepad and paste the following code in it line for line:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-...

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head>

<title></title>

</head>

<body>



</body>

</html>

2. Now go between the <title>and</title> tags and give your home page a title. For example: <title>My Home Page </title>

3. Write the stuff you want to appear on your web page between the <body> and </body> tags. Let's say you want the following two "paragraphs" to appear on your web page:

Hello World!

This is my first web page!

Place this code between the <body></body> tags:

Hello World!

This is my first web page!

Like this:

<body>

Hello World!

This is my first web page!

</body>

4. Go here to for image, heading and list HTML code:

(Scroll down to number 3, I already showed you steps 1 and 2.)

5. follow steps 4 - 6 at:

http://missingmethods.com/Programing/H/H...

steps 4 through 6 guide you through saving your web page and looking at it through firefox or internet explorer. There is a flash animation you can look at if you have a hard time following the steps. Note: The important thing when making a home page is to save it as index.html. However, you should follow the directions given on the web site first, to make sure every thing works properly, then go back and rename it index.html.

I would show you steps 4 - 6 here, but the web site it is interactive and has pictures, and you can't paste pictures in this forum.
