Kevin and Chris,
I would endorse that.

About a month ago I knew absolutely nothing about creating Web pages,
FrontPage or HTML. Actually I did recall what HTML was an acronym for -
great, it could still have been Swahili to me (apologies to speakers of
Swahili).

I bought a computer magazine with a small book named "Produce Your Own
Website" and another small book from a bookstore "Get Going With Web Pages".
They were not high powered manuals, but they got me started, together with
FP itself. The trick of using the FP interface and then looking at the code
it creates helps a lot.

This newsgroup is a good resource. I am impressed by the way experts will
answer questions which to them are so simplistic - but not to the newbies.
And they keep repeating their answers to others with apparent equanimity.

A good website is W3Schools Online Web Tutorials
http://www.w3schools.com/default.asp
To quote from their Home Page:
Full Web Building Tutorials - All Free
At W3Schools you will find all the Web-building tutorials you need, from
basic HTML and XHTML to advanced XML, XSL, Multimedia and WAP.

Hardly a day goes by when I don't do a bit of searching here for help.
