YOUR FIRST HTML PAGE - III

In the preceding section, we had left the discussion at the tag, so let us continue from here.For showing simple text, we use the

tag in such a manner:

Ah! This is for the first time I'm writing my own HTML. The world is so different out here. Marvelous!

You can consider

to be a paragraph.OK, now the page should look like:This is my first, hand-coded HTML page

Ah! This is for the first time I'm writing my own HTML. The world is so different out here. Marvelous!

Refresh the page. See something?If you want to highlight a section, for instance, "Marvelous!", you can do it like this:

Refresh the page. See something?The use of some of the tags have been discontinued by some of the newer browsers, but we'll handle those complexities when we cover style sheets. At the moment, these should work.The browser will show the text in the default font. If you want to use your own font, size and color, you'll have to use the font size for a particular portion of the text like this:

Ah! This is for the first time I'm writing my own HTML. The world is so different out here. Marvelous!

If you find it confusing, just type it as it is, save the file, and refresh the page in the browser, and you'll understand what I'm trying to say.Notice the opening and closing tags everywhere?

A graphic can act as a hyper-link too, but we'll come to that later.Suppose you want to add the following lines to the page:

also acts as a line break, so the next text appears like a new paragraph.You want the message in such a way, that when someone clicks on Bytesworth.com, the person is taken to http://www.Bytesworth.com. To accomplish this, you'll have to re-write the second paragraph like this:
