Beginning HTML 2

Now that you know how a basic HTML page is coded, we can begin with the good stuff - how to adjust the font, add images to your page, and add links!

The basic text formatting tags are: headings <h1> to <h6>, paragraphs <p>, and line breaks <br>. Also, an important tag is the commenting tag. To add comments in code, simple enclose your comments like so: 

Headings:
The heading tags are:

<h1>Heading tag</h1>

<h2>Heading tag</h2>

<h3>Heading tag</h3>

<h4>Heading tag</h4>

<h5>Heading tag</h5>

<h6>Heading tag</h6>

Paragraphs:
To automatically have the browser format paragraphs, you can use the <p> tag. The browser will automatically add a blank line before and after your text: Example: <p>Hi</p><p>Hi</p> results in:

Line Breaks
Line Breaks are useful for forcing new lines. Browsers do not read ordinary newlines (enters) in text. For example if you type the following in an html file:

My
HTML
Code

The following will be displayed by the browser:

My HTML Code

To force the browser to display it with the breaks, simply add <br> anywhere you want to have a new line. Note this is one of the few HTML tags that doesn't require you to "close" the tag (<br> - This tag does not exist, and it makes sense if you think about it.)
