Hi everyone. I am looking to build my own blog using HTML/CSS but the one question that is creating problems for me is Can I create a new post button in HTML/CSS? I mean a button through which users can post their articles in my website. Like in this site we click on "Ask a question" button which opens a new page where the users can type their question and post it in this site. Please guys if you find any tutorial for doing this please send the link.

You cannot create anything which could update the content of the site using just HTML+CSS. This is not button or something like that. You need to use some server-side technology. HTML can only contain some Web form to post an HTTP request to the server. If you use Javascript, you can alternatively use Ajax.

So, read about Web technologies (too much to write about it all in a Quick Answer), consult your hosting provider (if you have any, think to choose one of not) and see what kind of server-side technology you can use. If could be based on ASP.NET, JSP, Prolog, PHP — you name it. When you get basic understanding of it, come back with your questions.
