As you get better (and know some code) and want to know how some of the
trickier thing are coded on some of your favorite sites (this tip is for IE
user I don't know Netscape), while you have the page up go to 'view' in the
toolbar and hit 'source' and Notepad will pop up with the HTML code. Big hit
here...NEVER copy and paste from someone's page unless they say ok, they
worked long and hard (and in some cases paid for it) for their pages to look
like that and just taking it is cold $%#@! Remember kiddies...Look but don't
touch. Just use what you see as an idea of how they did it and work from
there.
