The email one is easy - i am not sure about the rest, but the email one is:
<a href="mailto:youaddresshere">Type what you want the link to look like</a>

Here is an example:
<a href="mailto:jtg@myplace.com">Click here to email me</a>

Yeah, I would definatly download the trial version of Dreamweaver to try.
It's sorta like using Word to make a website.

I use it and love it.

Absolutely, contrary to what people are saying about DreamWeaver / FrontPage / Other WYSIWYG Editors. If you have a knowledge of HTML, perhaps some experience with CSS as well, you can make wakeboarder.com or any other large website. Wakeboarder.com is powered by a custom-written PHP script that you could never create in DreamWeaver.

It's not too difficult to learn HTML, and when combined with basic page layout concepts and simple graphical additions and tasteful colors, successful websites can be created. You can do everything that DreamWeaver does, by hand. If you do it by hand, too, you'll learn a hell of a lot more and be able to make minor changes or major changes to a page without using DreamWeaver... you can use Notepad/TextEdit/SimpleText/Pico/Emacs/VI or whatever your favorite text editor is. My website was created entirely with a text editor and Photoshop for the graphics. When I make small changes to text and add links and such, I simply telnet into my server, fire up Pico, and make the changes that need to be done. Very simple, very fast.

Scrolling marquee is what you mean by scrolling text right?

<MARQUEE bgcolor="#FFFFFF" loop="-1" scrollamount="4" width="50%">Fred's car wash</MARQUEE>

I found you a code for a clock. I got it off www.dynamicdrive.com it has heaps of DHTML codes for your site, cool site.

Put this bit into the head...

<style>
<!--
.styling{
background-color:black;
color:lime;
font: bold 15px MS Sans Serif;
padding: 3px;
}
-->
</style>


And this where you want the clock to appear

<span id="digitalclock" class="styling"></span>

<script>
<!--

/*****************************************
* LCD Clock script- by Javascriptkit.com
* Featured on/available at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/
* This notice must stay intact for use
*****************************************/

var alternate=0
var standardbrowser=!document.all&&!document.getElementById

if (standardbrowser)
document.write('<form name="tick"><input type="text" name="tock" size="6"></form>')

function show(){
if (!standardbrowser)
var clockobj=document.getElementById? document.getElementById("digitalclock") : document.all.digitalclock
var Digital=new Date()
var hours=Digital.getHours()
var minutes=Digital.getMinutes()
var dn="AM"

if (hours==12) dn="PM"
if (hours>12){
dn="PM"
hours=hours-12
}
if (hours==0) hours=12
if (hours.toString().length==1)
hours="0"+hours
if (minutes<=9)
minutes="0"+minutes

if (standardbrowser){
if (alternate==0)
document.tick.tock.value=hours+" : "+minutes+" "+dn
else
document.tick.tock.value=hours+" "+minutes+" "+dn
}
else{
if (alternate==0)
clockobj.innerHTML=hours+"<font color='lime'>&nbsp;:&nbsp;</font>"+minutes+" "+"<sup style='font-size:1px'>"+dn+"</sup>"
else
clockobj.innerHTML=hours+"<font color='black'>&nbsp;:&nbsp;</font>"+minutes+" "+"<sup style='font-size:1px'>"+dn+"</sup>"
}
alternate=(alternate==0)? 1 : 0
setTimeout("show()",1000)
}
window.onload=show

//-->
</script>
