HTML Basics

Single Tags

Lines can be separated using the <br > tag. When you insert this tag at the end of a sentence, it starts the next sentence on the next line.
Example:
This is line one. <br > And this is line two.
The result:
This is line one.
And this is line two.

If you want to SKIP a line you can use the <p > tag. This has the same use as the <br > tag only it skips a line and starts your sentence from there.
Example:
This is line one. <p > And this is line two.
The result:
This is line one.

And this is line two.

Simple TAGS

Here are a few simple tags you can use:

To make your text bold:

<b>YOUR TEXT HERE!</b>

To make your text italic:

<i>YOUR TEXT HERE!</i>

To underline your text:

<u>YOUR TEXT HERE!</u>

To strike your text:

<s>YOUR TEXT HERE!</s>

To make your text look like that of a typewriter font

<tt>YOUR TEXT HERE!</tt>

If you would want to put a line across your page you can do so by puting this code:

---

<HR WIDTH=75%>
You just need to adjust the percentage to whatever length you would want your horizontal line to be. In this case I wanted it to be 75% of the width of the page it is contained.
