If you got to this post by searching something along the lines of “how to steals html codes” and you have no intention of learning how to actually make a website for yourself just get lost, you’re a lazy asshole and you’ll go nowhere in life. If you’re trying to learn how to make websites because you want to make a career for yourself and create something you can be proud of then you’re a good dude, read on.
I’m going to show you how to steal someone’s code. I’m not showing you this so that you can be a lazy idiot and steal someone’s website, I’m showing you because I find that the best way to learn something is to see how other people do things. When I was first learning I was always copying interesting layouts from the CSS Zen Garden and messing around with them on my own computer, trying to figure out how they did what they did.
All you need is Firefox. While on the web page you want to “steal” select File > Save Page As (Ctrl+S). Make sure the “Save As Type” option is set to “Web Page, complete” and hit “Save”. Pretty obvious right? Now you have the site saved on your hard drive. It’s probably best to only do this with .html pages. Unless you have PHP or ASP running on your local server, those types of pages won’t work on your computer.
With this website up and running on your computer you can change the CSS, have a look at the images and see how they cut them up and how they used background images. You can change the HTML around, add sections, delete sections, see what happens.
Have fun, learn something, don’t steal. Copyright is automatic upon creation.
