I have been learning HTML for the past month. Go to www.20fr.com they have all the stuuf you need. Host with them they kick butt. They have tutorials on makingorder forms, visitor trackers, all that. They even have a web design program. I did my website all by myself though not with any help from 20.fr except with the forms...

Check out my site. You will get the idea.

No, you didn't. You used a free web layout template made by somebody else.

I concur.

It's powerful, but easy to learn. You can do simple things with it to start off with, but it is always capable of much, much more.
