I'm using Netscape, I understand how to 'view source', but I do not know how to put a banner onto my website. If I copy the 'source' into notepad, and then add the 'source' of the banner, I'm not even sure that's what you're supposeed to do, then how do I get it back into my web page?<br />
<br />
Email is <!-- e --><a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a><!-- e -->, and and all help would be most apprecitated. :)~<br />
<br />
thanks,<br />

Can you attach both your web page and the source for the banner to your next post (as a zip file). We'll take a look and see if we can help :)<!--content-->Hi, welcome to htmlforums! You probablydon't know this because you're new, but cross-posting in this forum is prohibited. I persnally suggest you don't do it again. This is not a threat (SINCE i DO NOT HAVE THE POWER TO DO ANYHTING ABOUT IT) I just wanted to help you.<!--content-->Hi daveinsb,<br />
<br />
you have to Download <!--more--> the banner from the site where it is now.<br />
Put this img in your homepage folder.<br />
Then on your page <img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"banner.gif"><br />
Linking back to the site:<br />
<a href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"http://www.bannersite.com"><img src="banner.gif"></a><br />
<br />
If you are new to html use my tutorial: "Working With Arachnophilia", the html editor.<br />

But it is all in German! So I can't understand it. You say to put something in my "Homepage folder", I have no idea what that is.<br />
<br />
I am very sorry to be so ignorant.<br />
<br />
thank you,<br />

Dave<!--content-->There are many books available that take novice WebPage builders step by step in building pages.<br />
<br />
I bought a book at Wal-Mart called;<br />
"The Complete Idiot's Guide To--Creating a Web Page"<br />
<br />
It taught me the basic fundamentals of HTML. :)<br />
<br />
More than just learning HTML, you will need to learn the purpose and relation HTML has with the jibberish code looks like in the source code to the effects it creates in a web browser.<br />
<br />
There are also many tutorials on the WWW that are available for free. Just go to the top of this page and search for HTML tutorials. <br />
Many members of this forum also have sites (linked in their signature lines) that have tutorials as well as the host for this forum -- Big Resources Network.<br />
Good Luck<br />

Welcome to the forums Dave :) <br />
<br />
Just upload the banner to your server first and then use this code(just insert it into the code of your website in notepad)<br />
