HTML Beginners Help

Posted by Lui on Apr 5th, 2008 | 0 comments home title

An alien entity! That’s what I thought when I came across HTML codes during my initial forays into blogging. I didn’t know anything about coding but I wasn’t giving up. I saw a lot of people with no prior knowledge of HTML and they managed to create beautiful blogs. So, I decided to search and research on simple tips/guides and beginners help on HTML. Along the way I learned a lot and though till now I ain’t a master of HTML but I could get by with the help of these resources..
