<h3> tag
On
this page a number of tags and their effects will be shown. In HTML land
there is a choice of 6 different heading-sizes. The tag used for this
is <hn> and </hn>, here we need an "end" tag, to
stop the head. The "h" stands for "head" and "n"
is a number from 1 to 6, where 1 gives the largest heading and 6 the smallest.
This is the notation <h1>heading1</h1>and <h6>heading6</h6>,
and this is the effect:
heading1
heading6
<font size="3">
tag
Size is another possibility to emphasize text, the tag for this is <font
size="n"> and again an end tag </font>. "n"
can be a number from 1 to 6 (where 1 is the smallest and 6 the largest,
very consistent..) and here is the notation <font size="1">size
is 1</font> etc.and the result is:
size is 1 size is 2
size is 3 size is 4 size is
5 size is 6

Text-related tags
Apart from the tags which have a direct impact on
the characters, you can make use of a set of tags that influence the way
text is positioned on the page:
<h4 align=center>Centralize a Heading</h4>
<center>To centralize a normal textblock is done with this tag,
which can also be used for centralizing images. Using "right"
makes it possible to align the text on the right side.</center>
<blockquote>Sometimes a certain piece of text is quoted,
or has to be lifted out of the normal text. This can be done with this
tag, which causes space to be created on the left as well as on the right
side.</blockquote>
Action
Open the html file of LovelyMaps" in the text-editor
and play around with these tags. Also make combinations of tags, e.g.
bold underlined italic centralized text.
