I was wondering how to make an online game like ISketch.net or InkLink on shockwave.com? I know it requires shockwave, but could I edit it into an HTML editor on a website provider? I'm not farmilliar with html but thats what I need help with. I need to know how to put all of the stuff together. Please Help!

That requires Adobe shockwave or flash. There is no good way to make shockwave/flash files without Adobe's software. You can't edit it with a text editor, and it's much more than simple code.

To put a flash or shockwave file into a web page, use this:

<object width="250" height="400" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http:// fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0">
<param name="movie" value="" />
<embed src="" width="250" height="400" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http:// www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>

Change width and height to reflect the animation's size in pixels. Change value="" and src="" to the location of the flash or shockwave file. Remove the space between http: and // in the URLs.

It's possible to use Java instead of flash or shockwave, and it's free. It much, much harder to work with, though. You can also use SVG for simple animations and games. If you're using firefox or opera, you can see an SVG demo here:
