Search for "html programming" and "website programming" to find how to use the language. You can make a website in notepad if you really wanted to, browsers just read the text and display what the text tells it to do. Try viewing page source (Ctrl+U on Firefox) or saving a page and opening it in notepad. It is very hard to understand so maybe try a more simple website first.
A good program to use is Dreamweaver by Adobe, it contains pretty much everything you need to create a page using an interface rather than coding.
For getting your page on the web try searching for "free web hosting". a good site is "freewebtown.com" where you can create an account and upload all your pages into the site and anyone can view it.
Or, buy a url and host your own server. But i recommend getting books out at the library that teach html, php mySQL, and css before doing any of these because making websites from scratch isn't too easy.
you must purchase a hosting service. Once it is finalized, go to your domain control panel and update it with the appropriate name servers eg.
if you host was godaddy.com
your nameserver would probably be ns1.godaddy.com and ns2.godaddy.com
be aware than when you update name servers, it may take up to 24hours to finalize
use a program like macromedia dreamweaver or microsoft frontpage to create you main page - you must name it index.html and upload it to your host's root storage. all images and files must be uploaded too, with the index in the same directory. once this is completed, visit your domain name in internet explorer and your website is done!
