Phishing, is a way of deception through emails. Fraudsters fool gullible people by sending them emails and web sites and unknowingly, they ar econned into revealing their private informations, bank accounts, credit card numbers and other things of personal value. A Phishing attack starts with a fake email that is sent to your Inbox. The phishing email surely lokks like a true mail sent by the affected bank or online accounts. Like eBay, Paypal. And other times, the email will be a request for help and it promises to pay you up with big monetary rewards. The letter or email will direct you to a fake website which masquerades as a legitimate one and then will be asked for personal information.

Learn how to create Links in HTML.

This is what it looks like in your browser:

The element “a” stands for “anchor”. The attribute href is short for “hypertext reference”, which specifies where the link leads to - typically an address on the internet or a file name.

In the example above, the attribute href has the value “http://easywebtutorials.net/”, which is the full address of Easy Web Tutorials and is called a URL (Uniform Resource Locator).

CSS


< link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="all.css" />
< style type="text/css">@import “noNav4.css”;< /style>

The browser was created before the rise of CSS. What does this mean? Well, it means that old browsers won’t understand your CSS files. In fact some browsers, sorry I mean Netscape 4, will crash at the sight of CSS.

The first line will work for all browsers. Just keep in mind only CSS level 1 should be in this file. But on the second line, Netscape will ignore it because it does not understand the @import tag.

The idea is to build on top of your CSS code so all browser will render correctly.

But in reality, if you look at the browser statistics, you should be mainly concern with MSIE 6/7, Mozilla/Firefox, and Safari. Part of me still loves Opera, but it’s dead last on my list when I’m coding HTML.

All browsers have default settings and that’s the reason why MSIE and Mozilla renders each page differently. So in your CSS file, just reset the default settings and you’ll have consistency throughout each browser. Add this line to the top of you CSS file:


html, body, ul, ol, li, p,
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6,
form, fieldset, a { margin:0; padding:0; border:0; }

What is an HTML File?

Let’s Try It?

If you are running Windows, start Notepad.
If you are on a Mac, start SimpleText.

In OSX start TextEdit and change the following preferences: Open the “Format” menu and select “Plain text” instead of “Rich text”. Then open the “Preferences” window under the “Text Edit” menu and select “Ignore rich text commands in HTML files”. Your HTML code will probably not work if you do not change the preferences above!

Type in the following text:


< html>
< head>
< title>Title of page
< /head>
< body>
This is my first homepage. < b>This text is bold
< /body>
< /html>


Save the file as “mypage.htm”.

Start your Internet browser. Select “Open” (or “Open Page”) in the File menu of your browser. A dialog box will appear. Select “Browse” (or “Choose File”) and locate the HTML file you just created - “mypage.htm” - select it and click “Open”. Now you should see an address in the dialog box, for example “C:\MyDocuments\mypage.htm”. Click OK, and the browser will display the page.
