Basic HTML Tags Continued
New HTML tags we'll use in this lesson are:
<p></p>
The Paragraph tag. It creates a line break and adds an extra line
afterwards.
<br> This
is a Break tag, which takes you directly to the next line, without
any extra lines. Notice that this one doesn't need a closing
tag.
<b></b>
The bold tag makes text bold.
<i> </i>
This tag makes text italic. (see? this stuff isn't scary
at all).
Let's reopen our file, "first.html"
and mess around, shall we?

Make these changes:
<html>
<head>
<title>The
Best Page Ever!</title>
</head>
<body>
I just made my very first page. I'm cool.
<br>
I <b>love</b> this stuff! Designing a
webpage is actually kinda easy.
<p>Who'd
of <i>thunk</i> it? Enough already, I'm
getting bored.</p>
</body>
</html>

Save it, open
it in your browser and enjoy the fine fruits of your labor.

HTML allows for one space typed with the space bar. If you type
more than one consecutive space, it'll ignore all but the first.
Don't worry though, use a non-breaking space
to add more spaces.
