Now here is the most imporant part, getting the code right:
CODE
<body bgcolor="#000000">
<center><form method="post" action="">
<textarea name="comments" cols="100" rows="35">
</textarea>
</form>
</center>
</body>
<center><form method="post" action="">
<textarea name="comments" cols="100" rows="35">
</textarea>
</form>
</center>
</body>
Lets disect it:
CODE
<body bgcolor="#000000">
Is basically the background colour of your desktop not the notepad.CODE
<center> </center>
aligns your text area in the center.CODE
<form method="post" action="">
<textarea name="comments" cols="100" rows="35">
</textarea>
</form>
Is the text area. You can change the size of your text area on your desktop by changing the "Cols=" and the "Rows=" Colums the width and Rows the height.<textarea name="comments" cols="100" rows="35">
</textarea>
</form>
Save the code as: <whatevername.html> e.g notepad.html
Click to view attachment
Now the last section, embedding it. (Not as hard as it sounds)
Go to your desktop>Right Click>Properties>Desktop(tab)>Browse> And locate the HTML file> Apply
Click to view attachment
