Step Three: Making Our Our First Web Page

Alrighty, that's most of what we need to do, at least for now. Composer works a lot like MS Word or other word processing programs in terms of text. Just type some stuff in the blank space beneath the table, either a little information about yourself or the class or your best friend Sally, whatever. In a little while I'm going to explain all the other web features that come with Composer but for now just fool around with some text, bold your writing, use different alignment or size, that sort of thing. Use a toolbar that looks like this to do those things:
 


Ok after you do that there's just one more thing we need to do. Right-click on the "caption" area (the part of the page that says ARROWS among other stuff). After right-clicking select "table properties." Set the "Caption" option to "none."
