Every page begins with this HTML (it may differ slightly) 

<HTML> 
<HEAD> 
<TITLE>your_title_here</TITLE> 
</HEAD> 

<body bgcolor="#??????" background="your_background_name_here.gif (or .jpg)" 
text="#??????" link="#??????" vlink="#??????"> 

You replace ?????? with hexidecimal color names. If you don't want or have a 
background image remove the line "background="your_background_name_here.gif 
(or .jpg)" 

Here is some HTML which is used all over the place: 

<a href="link_URL_here">name_of_link</a> - creates a link 
<a href="mailto:e-mail_address_here>name_of_e-mail_owner</a> - creates an 
e-mail link 

<img src="image_name_here.gif (or jpg)> - shows an image 

<center> - Centers text 

By the way, if you put a slash after the '<' it finishes the required task so </center> 
finishes centering text. 

<br> - Finishes the current line and starts a new one 
<p> - Finishes the current line, leaves a line and starts on the next. 

<ul> 
<li>item_one 
<li>item_two 
<li>item_three 
</ul> 
- creates a bulleted list. If you want a numbered list, change <ul> 
and </ul> to <ol> and </ol> 

<h1> - creates a size 1 heading. 
<h2> - creates a size 2 heading. 
<h3> - creates a size 3 heading. 
<h4> - creates a size 4 heading. 
<h5> - creates a size 5 heading. 
<h6> - creates a size 6 heading. 
LEVEL 1 is the the largest an LEVEL 6 is the smallest. 

<b> - bold text 
<i> - italic text 
<u> - underlined text 

<blink> - makes text blink 

This allows you to jump to other parts of the same page: 
<a name="target_name_here"> - creates a target 
<a href="#target_name_here">hotlink_text</a> - creates the link which causes the 
jump on the page 

All HTML must end with this: 
</BODY> 
</HTML>
