Writing your code 'by hand' gives you more flexibility and a cleaner page of code. When I see the following:
Code:
<span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><span lang="en-AU"><font size="2"><font color="#000000"><font size="2"><font color="#000000"><font size="3" face="Arial" color="#000000">
<table width="714" height="157" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="3" border="0" summary="">
I almost feel sorry for you...
It isn't smart to clean up your page, this will take a lot of time, certainly when this is your first website. I would start to learn writing HTML combined with the magic of CSS.
A good starting point is of course WebProWorld, but there are many more websites of course! A few that are very handy when you are new to HTML and CSS are:
glish.com : CSS layout techniques
Listamatic: one list, many options - Using CSS and a simple list to create radically different list options
And a little more basic explaining:
Guide to Cascading Style Sheets
Hope to have helped a bit and inspired you to clean your code. |
Thanks so much, Erick,
I am learning so much, and I am sure now that next time I will have a much better result! I have started cleaning up my code, and I know it will take a long time, but I am sure it will be worth it!
Thanks again for your help.
