You cant send your friend the address. Because that website is saved in your pc directory, you'd need to have it online to see it properly.

With regards to your picture, make sure the image is in the right directory,

a really good site i used to get aquainted with html is

Hi ppl,
I'm a newbie when it comes to working with html.
I just tried creating a webpage..
I'm stuck up at 2 important point.

a) the most important : Now that I have formatted the text, added photos etc.. I wanna know how to add BACKGROUND image

I used <BODY BACKGROUND = "FLHSDF.JPG"> </BODY>
tag, but my background images don't load.. no matter how small it is.

b) the joke is.. that is. as of now, I can acess it.. but If i wanna send my friend a mail saying this is my webpage... file:///C:/path/filename.htm :D ???

help please, tnx in adv!
can she view it on her browser as well?
 
a) The index.html or any html page would need to be in the same directory as the background image (FLHSDF.JPG). If you have it in "images\FLHSDF.JPG" then you need to reflect that path in your background tag.

b) that path is for your local PC, so you'll need to publish it to the web. Find a free host, I would recommend GeoCities from Yahoo... but they are closing the doors on GeoCities later this year... no more free hosting.
 
I can't tell you why your background tags aren't working, but I am pretty sure that there are other formats. As for the emailing, you can't email her your webpage, (assuming that you have an index with more than one page) because she doesn't have them saved on her computer. Once you put your website on the internet, she'll be able to view it.
Sorry my memory is a little bit off today, but I think that this is pretty accurate.
