Hi, to be honest being rude with beginners is unnecessary. Maybe he has no idea where to start - and a mailing list can be a right place.
You can find all HTML standards here: http://www.w3schools.com If you don't know where to start the best is try out everything yourself and you will find that part which impresses you. Rails is a framework which generates HTML. It communnicates with Database so it's definitely not static like HTML itself. CSS if for giving some styling and Rails also generates some CSS and enables you to modify it as you wish. Later you can include great frameworks too and you can avoid boring repetition of same tasks (like HAML, SCSS, BluePrint, Compass). Rails can be hard as starting point if you have no idea about HTML, CSS, JavaScript. You can pick up everything on the way but it can take much more time. Preferably you spend some time with these then you restart studying a little bit of Ruby and then continue with Rails. www.railstutoial.org This guy explains everything what's better to know before starting, the first part will be very helpful for you. Best wishes and hope you'll find your way! gezope On Mar 2, 5:27 pm, Walter Lee Davis <[email protected]> wrote: > On Mar 1, 2011, at 9:04 PM, radhames brito wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > On Tue, Mar 1, 2011 at 2:31 AM, Karthikeyan <[email protected]> > > wrote: > > OK, you put HTML and CSS code into a file and name it something.html , > > save it and open in a browser and you see a beautiful web page. > > > Continuing with what Karthikeyan said , you will see a static > > beautiful page, like a MS word document it will always look the same > > as long as you dont edit it.
