Jim,

Bob's link pointed you to a page of his web site. It is written in html (hyper text markup language) which is just a bunch of formatting tools. To see the actual code that creates the page, click on the "view" button at the top of your browser, then on the "source" option. It will show you the actual text file that causes what you see.

For example, the following line:

Hello <B>Jim</B> Gardner

would display as "Hello Jim Gardner", but the "Jim" part would be bold. Of course, it get's a lot more complicated than the above simple example, but if you give it a little try you will find it isn't really that hard.

The most important thing is to understand what is happening when you browse the internet. Keep in mind, when you click on a link, your browser looks at the link and says, ok, this is the address of the data that this person wants to see. It then sends a message out to the server at that address and asks for the data. That server sends the data back to your browser which looks at the data and reconstructs it on your screen.

With Bob's pigface page the browser sees some text that is supposed to be bold and centered, then a lot of text that isn't formatted. Then it sees an instruction (tag) that says center this picture on the screen and print it. Then more text, then another picture and then at the bottom, make a clickable link.

It's not very hard at all really. I mean, if limo Bob can do it then I'm sure you can to. <g>
