Steven's HTML Cheat Sheet

When you want to underline, bold, etc. something, you surround it in tags, like so:

This is the text to be altered

Notice that the second tag had a / in it.

Replace the ? with the right letter for your effect:

b = bold

i = italic

u = underline

s = strike

You can open and close tags wherever you like. Just remember to close any open tags, lest they take over THE REST OF YOUR DOCUMENT.

This is a really interesting subject.

===

Font sizes aren't very hard at all!

Just use this tag:

The text you're writing

Replace the ? with a number 1 through 7. 1 is the smallest. Also, do not forget those quotation marks, as some browsers require it.

===

Add some colour! Use this tag:

Your words

Color names can be basic colors like red blue or yellow, or obscure ones like deepskyblue, silver, or dodgerblue. You can also use hex values, but you have to remember to use the # sign. Either way, be sure to remember the quotes.

For more information on Hex values and colour names to use, go to this URL:

There is a LOT more information there, too.

===

Combine them!

You can combine the above two tags like this:

Your text goes here.

Notice that all you need to do is use the to close all the effects.

===

Making images.

Use this tag to display an image.



Just use the URL for your image. Using a URL implies you already uploaded it to a server like Photobucket or ImageCaves or whatever.

===

HTML is MUCH MUCH more complicated than this, but have fun with it. :p That link gives you a lot more information as well, such as making different fonts and tables.

There. NOW YOU KNOW.
