I have a few questions about this website.

1) How did you get the picture and navigation bar to span the entire page without margins?

2) How much money per year does it cost to keep this site up an running?

3) I have a few others, but I can't think of them right now.

You see I intend to make a website of my own. I know DHTML, PHP, and SQL. Unfortinatly, I need a hosting service. Its really too bad that they aren't any good free hosting services. They give you very little space and the amount of space they give you for the databses are total crap.

Does anyone know of a good free hosting service which supports PHP, SQL, and other such things? If not, then whats the cheapest hosting service with the most gigabytes of space?

I intend to create a community website simalar to this one but pertaining to a totally different thing. If anyone could help me in getting this accomplished it would be greatly appreciated.

I really have basically no money. I'm actually too young to have money. lol. But I really want to create this website. I need some serious help.

I know you can get rid of margins using:

<body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0" bottommargin="0">

But I think Clubby has used CSS to do it - I don't know CSS yet.

 
This is a signature. Have this one on me.

I knew about that but it still leaves a little space when you put tables in. Also, I view the source of the page and I saw none of that in the body tag. Perhaps I should following the reference to the style sheet and take a look at that.

Hello Cherry Lee.

Like Flava said use those margin tags in the BODY tag. In fact this is what I always use in my websites:
... topmargin="0" marginheight="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0" marginwidth="0" bottommargin="0" ...
it seems to work out good with all browsers.

You will also need to make sure you put in your TABLE tag the following:
... cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" ...
and that should make sure that it stretches right across the page.

As for the hosting, I use GoDaddy as they are very cheap at $3.99 USD per month (paid 2 monthly) and no Set-Up fee. They give you 5GB of hosting space and 250GB monthly transfer (bandwidth). They offer Windows (ASP) or Linux (PHP) based hosting to choose from. I have been using them for over a year now with no problems.

The only thing you will need is a Credit Card, so if you're not old enough to have one of those you may have to ask your parents for help.
