How to Create Blinking Text

Although understanding HTML code well enough to create a full Web page takes a large amount of expertise, it is much easier to create a few simple HTML elements. Every HTML element must have an opening and a closing tag. These two tags are nearly identical, except for the "/" included in the closing tag. You can easily create blinking text for a website or blog by using just a little bit of HTML code.

Instructions

1. Log in to your website or blog. Click on the location where you want to include blinking text.

2. Type "<blink>" to open the code. Do not include the quotation marks.

3. Type the text you want to blink on your Web page or blog.

4. Type "</blink>" to close your code. Again, do not include the quotations. You now have created blinking text.

Tips & Warnings

• Your finished code should look like this:

• <blink>This is your blinking text.</blink>
