Side Border Stationery

*Side Bordered Stationery HTML*

This is a little tutorial to help you learn how to
make a left bordered stationery using HTML script.

It would have this apprearance.
Colored scroll bars, a border all the way around
and the text off of the main graphic.

You need one seamless background tile that is
1280 pixels wide and the height of your choice.
This one is 400 pixels high.

The graphic shown is smaller to fit the page.

I do not know who the artist is of the
tube that I am using on the stationery tile.
If you know, please let me know so that
I can give credit where credit is due.

Now that we have all the materials that we need,
we can get on with doing the tutorial.

Drag this arrow to keep track of where you are.

1) Click on select all, highlighted in pink.

2) Press CTRL C to copy it to your clip board.

3) Paste it into a new note pad document.
You can use an HTML Editor.

4) Save it to a file where you will be able to find it.
Save it as an HTML file and a txt file.

5) Open the text file and you can make changes
to the script to suit yourself.
