My very sparse hand-coded HTML page

This is a simple web page with frames.

http://kaniata.atwebpages.com

I'm using frames because I love them, and I INSIST that I will create a web page that uses frames. Maybe someday I'll get past this obsession, but right now, I just won't feel complete until I've mastered the use of frames. If you click on certain links (like the one at the bottom of Chapter 2), it's possible to open a frame within a frame over and over again. The page is messy and imperfect because I am still learning how to do it. I am not using an HTML editor. I am just typing in the words myself.

I am learning how it feels to type it by myself. That is the best way for me to understand it and remember it. That's how I learned bookkeeping - I did a Schaum's Outline book and I wrote out all the exercises by hand using pen and paper. If I do something similar with coding HTML then I will remember it much longer than I would if I used something like Microsoft Word or some other program that will set up an HTML document for you and help you write it.

For some reason, it's usually the middle of winter, like January or February, when I work on learning how to make web pages or write a computer program. I have tried this several times over the past few years but have never finished an actual project. And it's always been right about this time of year when I've done it.
