Ok hear we go basic bare bones tags only and see what we get at the end just type as you would normaly do between the body tags and save it as test1.htm.
I am doing this useing Notepad and I have no idea what the result will look like if you copy and save this you will see no formating is retained at all and you have no control over the page.
This is where the other tags come in to give you that control.
Once you have copied/saved and opened it in your browser and seen the result just delete it.
We will start adding tags in test2
