       HTML Is a code used by web browsers to detect. You can harness the power of it, you can publish your own web pages using web page editor, or  the notebook program on windows ( I don't know any other OS systems has a notebook-like program). You got to put tags, a code to dectect your web browser to load specifc taks, to your web page to operate.

How to type a tag
        You see tags has to have the "<" and ">" symbols. To start instruction you need to put "<", the code, and ">". To end the intruction of the tag use "<", the slash ( / ), the code, and ">" .

        Weh typing the instruction betwwen the "<" and the ">", you can ethier type in all caps, non-caps, or the combonation of caps and non-caps. Caps are capital letters, or a secondary function of the key of the keyboard.
