Basic HTML stucture looks similar to this:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body
</html>
Place your page's main content in between <body> and </body> (text, images, links, etc...) Place things like CSS, meta tags, and titles in between <head> and </head>. To change the background color of your page, replace <body> with:
| <body bgcolor="red"> |
In other words, you are adding bgcolor="red". You can change red to any color you like (blue, silver, black, orange) or, you can use HEX codes to get a more specific color. For example, #000000 is black, and #FFFFFF is white. HEX codes consist of six characters, either letters or numbers. Here is a HEX code chart:
To use an image as your background, copy the code below, and replace the <body> tag with it.
| <body background="IMAGE URL"> |
Replace IMAGE URL with the url of the image you want as your background. To change the colour of your text, use the code below:
| <font color="#000000"> text text text</font> |
Replace #000000 with the HEX code or colour you want, and replace "text text text" with your text. To create an image, use the code below:
| <img src="/img_articles/1344/IMAGE URL"> |
Replace IMAGE URL with the url of the image you want to show up.
