Seems to be a good job so far. Just a few things. What do you use as an HTML/Page editor? I use FrontPage 98. For most, there is nothing better or easier to use. It makes Frames, Tables, etc.. almost mindless. Also, If you don't own a copy of O'Rielly's Webmaster in a Nutshell (or HTML or something, I forget for sure but it is 'in a Nutshell') get one. It is one of the best references. And last but not least, once you have a rudimentary understanding of HTML pages and frames, visit sites you like and steal/view their source. A lot of work has already gone into layout, HTML, tips, Javascript, etc. and it is all free for you to snag from someone else's site. If you decide that you want more active dnamic site you are stepping into the world of ASP, CGI/BIN, online databases,etc. A little more complicated and should be tackled seperately The Stock Standing site is a combination between pages that I generate from Java code and ASCII tables which are managed and published using Frontpage. I could have done this easier but I did not have DB software (i.e. Access) on my laptop and I was on the road when I created it.
