Math Help > Webmaking > Starting
So you want to make some web pages, do you? I assume you have a purpose in mind, and you have an idea in your head of how the web pages should look. But you need some help with the technical aspects of webmaking. You need to make some decisions at the beginning, but to make the right decisions you will need to draw on knowledge you will acquire along the way. What a dilemma! I'll solve it for you by telling you the "right" answers, and as best I can, the rationale for those answers. As you make your web, you will see for yourself why these decisions were made the way they were.
Before we get started, I want to see if you have any business being here. If not, I want to send you away. I'm not being mean. Quite the contrary, I don't want to waste your time. The advice I'm about to give will help you only if the web pages you intend to make meet certain criteria.
Once you create your web pages, do you intend to add pages to it from time to time?
Are you willing to use the Microsoft tools for creating web pages?
Can you organize your pages in a tree-structure (that means "like an outline")?
Can you host your web pages on the Microsoft IIS Webserver?
