I am learning to build a web site, using as a the teaching aid the text<br>
book called "Build Your Own Web Site the Right Way using HTML & CSS" by<br>
Ian Lloyd.<br>
As I intend building a website on Ubuntu, I have installed the Bluefish<br>
text editor - the stable version 1.0.7. So far so good - I have reached<br>
the stage of displaying an image on the home page (of the example given<br>
in the text). The Bluefish manual, however, does not discuss the coding<br>
(tags, etc.), presuming this to be already known. As a beginner I don't<br>
know, but this hasn't been a problem because my text book teaches me. I<br>
have found in Bluefish by trial all tags mentioned so far in the<br>
teaching aid.<br>
However there are some curiosities. For example the teaching aid use a p<br>
tag for paragraph, which is to found on Bluefish toolbar. However there<br>
is in Bluefish another paragraph tag called para. By trial it works<br>
equally well for paragraphing. Is there a difference between p and para<br>
tags?<br>
My question of members is: Is there a (text) reference for tags that I<br>
could read and be better informed?<br>

KompoZer was formerly known as Nvu.<br>
<br>Bluefish is a very good editor. I have used Arachnophilia for many years. Arachnophilia is a Java program (and free).<br><br></div><a href="http://www.arachnoid.com/arachnophilia/">http://www.arachnoid.com/arachnophilia/</a><br>
