Hi...I'm new to HTML and Javascript and could really use some tips on where to find things. My immediate problem is that I have a button and I'd like to make the font bold. I figured out how to change the font size and the button size, but I don't know how to make it bold.

What I'd really like to know is where can I go to get a list of all the possible properties that a particular form can have? Someone told me to change the background color of the button by saying in the <style> tag "background-color:rbg(xxx)". But how would I know it's "background-color" vs. "bgcolor"?? Is there some master list somewhere that has all the properties of any form or layer or table that you can have on a page?

Thanks for your help!! :)

For beginners see the tutorials at W3 Schools (http://www.w3schools.com/default.asp)
Start with HTML, XHTML and CSS
Look at CSS for your present problem.

I would also recommend W3 Schools. They do a pretty good job of explaining how it works. Good Luck.
