Simple tags Three

Normally, pages start with a title. In Notepad, you make a title by writing <title> and </title>, as we did in the last lesson. In that page, I would like for you to add a new tag: <h1> and </h1>. This new tag is called the heading tag. You may designate the tags h1 through h6. Make the heading, "Your name web page". When you save it again as html, it should look like below.

Your Name Web Page
This is h6.

The code for this line looks like this:
<h6>Your Name Web Page> </h6>

Your Name Web Page
This is h5.

The code for this line looks like this:
<h5>Your Name Web Page> </h5>

Your Name Web Page
This is h4.

The code for this line looks like this:
<h4>Your Name Web Page> </h4>

Your Name Web Page
This is h3.

The code for this line looks like this:
<h3>Your Name Web Page> </h3>

Your Name Web Page
This is h2.

The code for this line looks like this:
<h2>Your Name Web Page> </h2>

Your Name Web Page
This is h1.

The code for this line looks like this:
<h1>Your Name Web Page> </h1>
Let's learn to add a background color to our page. This is done with the tags <body bgcolor=#?</body>. For colors, each color has six numbers.

But for simplicity, now you can just type yellow. (They also each have a letter name.)
The ending body tag goes just above the ending html tag at the end of your page.

Remember to right click the page and view source to see how I did it when you get stuck! If you want the exact color I used find it when you view source.
