How to Put a Button on Your Website

To put a button on your website, you need 3 images. First, you need to make a button using a photoshop tutorial. Save this button as Button.png. Next, use Hue/Saturation on photoshop to make the color a little different or brighter. Name this button Button 2.png. For the third image you'll need to use Bevel/Emboss to make the differently colored button look depressed. I used a downward pillow emboss but you can use whatever you think looks best. Finally, copy and paste this into your html source page:

<a href="put whatever url you want the button to take you to here"><img src="Button.png" onmouseover="this.src='Button 2.png'" onmouseout="this.src='Button.png'" alt="Click Me" border="none" onmousedown="src='D Button.png'"/></a>

*make sure that the backround is transparent for all of the button images (unless the shadow is showing from your Bevel/Emboss and you want to make the last one the color of your website backround).

Feedback on "Origins of the Internet"

I think its really interesting that we don't really know when the internet was invented and who it was invented by. Its creation was probably heavily influenced by the Pentagon's Advanced Research Projects Agency Network, or Arpanet program. The purpose of this program, started in 1969,  was scientific, and it failed in its initial purpose. However, it did end up creating the Internet protocols in 1970. Robert Metcalfe, who was responsible for the development of Ethernet, made a version of the packet switching and Internet protocols which were being developed for Arpanet available to cabled networks. With these developments in place, tools were readily available to connect both old and new style computers, via wireless, cable, and telephone networks. By the mid 1980's, everything that was needed for an explosion of internetworking was in place. So, even though Arpanet was not the beginnings of the Internet, it was important to its creation. Ian Peters is working to clear up the discrepancies in the creation of the Internet in his History of the Internet. He noticed that much of what has happened during the development of the Internet is undocumented and felt the need to do something about it. If he had not been so creative and innovative, then finding out about the history of the internet would still be difficult and inaccurate.

What are HTML and CSS???

HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. It is the language that specifies how text will be formatted and displayed in a web browser.

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. It is a standard for formatting the appearance of web pages.
