Cool HTML Codes

About HTML Codes

You can add just about any type of HTML code to your website, as long as the site builder you are using allows it. Some of the free website builders don't allow for HTML codes to be used, but if you are using a program that allows it, you will find many free tips and tricks available to use. HTML codes allow you to:

• Justify or center text
• Add highlights, shadows or boldness to text
• Add color to your page
• Create boxes, frames, tables, graphs and charts
• Create hyperlinks to other web pages or websites
• Add some glitter or highlights to graphics or images
• Add some sparkle to the cursor
• Add music to your page
• Change the appearance of images
• Alter the appearance of your background
• Add borders, marquees or pop-up windows

Some Cool HTML Codes

If you aren't savvy enough to write your own HTML code, there are many places online that offer free, unrestricted codes to copy and paste into your own web pages. However, before you copy the codes, make sure you read and understand the site's terms of use, as some site owners want recognition for the codes being used including a link back from your site to their's.
