Here's how you create color:

Code:
[color=#XXXXXX]YOUR TEXT[/color]

XXXXXX is 00-FF hex colors for red, green, blue

Example: [color=#AA408F]Does this answer your question?[/color]

Does this answer your question?

I'm currently studying Java. My learning centre's manager allowed me to undertake a HTML course first, but the two are extremely different in content and difficulty. HTML is simply memorising small pieces of code/tags, but Java is rather convoluted and not particularly fun nor simple to learn.

I am interested in learning HTML so I can code a website. Do you guys have any e-book suggestions or video tutorials? How did you learn to code in HTML?

Have a look at code academy it gets you going with the basics and it's interactive.

The way I learnt was from the reference manuals I think? can't remember now to long ago :)

My learning facilitators kindly allowed me to study "Introduction to HTML" free of charge. If you conduct a search on Google, you may find the course online. It's really simple to learn; you just need a text editor such as NotePad or NotePad ++ for the coding and a web browser to publicise what you have executed.

Unfortunately it's nothing at all like Java!

I once made a Java program to practice the Japanese base alphabets Hiragana and Katakana.
It would basically show a character on the screen and I would have to input the right pronunciation for it.

I haven't done much on this site beyond the capacity of lurking here and there in almost four years but this thread intrigued me enough to write something.

I have worked in a variety of languages, but my capabilities shine through the most in Python at the moment. I've been working on a currently untitled text adventure and also have some stuff I've been doing for a programming challenge for a job I'm in the process of applying for.

If you are interested in seeing any of my other code check out my GitHub. Beware however, as most of my projects on GitHub at the moment are older or poorly thought out projects and as a result not very well written (little to no test coverage, lack of real documentation). I really need to work on fixing that.
