That is all HTML means, nothing really mysterious. It uses only the letters and symbols on your regular keyboard. What it does is tell a browser what to show on a Page that you have asked for (by putting the address in the address bar), and how to format the information for that page.

HTML is really quite simple, and most of the "tags" (what we call the different "codes") are common sense, therefore easy to remember. Besides, you should have a printout of the tags to refer to, in case you do forget. Start with the common and basic ones, and add others later on.

To make a line break , same as pressing enter on your keyboard, you type bR.Then in the End you Close your web page by typing the ending tag
