How do you learn HTML fast?
Go to w3schools.com -- they have great tutorials. After walking through their instructions and understanding how HTML works, set yourself a criteria on what you will require yourself to have in a website, then begin building it. Use only textpad, PSPad (recommended), or some text editor. This is a bit laborious, but after spending a few hours using HTML, you'll understand the syntax and be ready to use it at your leisure. You may never know ALL the ins and outs, but you can read it, analyze it and write it. _________________________________________________________________________ I recodmmend this web site: http://www.lissaexplains.com Its just such a wonderful site. w3schools.com is also a good place to start.
How do you run PHP on Windows?
No. However, PHP must be on your computer to process the PHP commands. You will also need a web server program like Apache. A simple way to do this is to go to http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html and all the programs you need can be installed on your computer to run PHP, plus a MYSQL database, in case you want to really get into working with PHP. Once the PHP and Apache are installed you can access your PHP web pages through your browser from your Apache "localhost" directory after storing your new PHP files there. No internet connection needed.
