He said simple and first time...

Try this: http://www.editpadpro.com/editpadlite.html

Find a page that you like somewhere, steal the html and edit it with that program.

Bang, instant web page.

style sheets? Dreamweaver? For a newbie? Yikes.

First, learn the basics of HTML at www.weballey.net. You might spend a couple days going through the info but if you master the material on this site, you can build quite a nice web page that will work for all browsers and all resolutions.

Then, either use TS' link or www.textpad.com and use a basic text editor to compose the HTML. I'm not familiar with editPad but Text pad has a built in HTML editor mode with many HTML tags that you can add with a simple doubleclick. Save the doc as type "HTML" and it will color code it for you to make editing a snap.

I think it best if you do something absurdly quick and simple and post your pages to your site just to make one complete cycle through the development process. Then, go back and add enhancements as you acquire more skill and more daring.

Pls provide a link to your web page when you post it.
