HTML Tags: Try This at Home!

I found the coolest site for learning HTML tags: W3Schools. (You can look at the HTML source code for any website--including this one--by choosing "Source" or "Page Source" from the View Menu on your browser). The main site has tutorials for all kinds of stuff, like Java and Web Building. The HTML Tutorial is geared to total dummies like me, with introductory pages that explain basic terminology as if you know practically nothing, and a neat online HTML editor that allows you to monkey around with code and see display results almost instantaneously--right beside your code! I've learned how to code simple stuff like headings, paragraphs, line breaks, bold and italics, background color, horizontal lines. Now I'm moving on to hyperlinks, which will be great because they tend to give me the most trouble, and knowing code must surely help to resolve these problems. I learned how to code those nifty spelled-out versions of abbreviations and acronymns, which you can see if you scroll over the "HTML" in the first sentence of this post.
