This is more or less the same page that we worked at last month, but now some words

have been <B>bolded</B> and some <I>italicized</I> using the new tags we looked at

in this month's article.<P>



<I>Text is very easy to handle in HTML,</I> as long as you don't try to include special 

formatting characters inserted by word processors (such as <B>bolding</B> information, 

etc.) which comes out in the form of garbage characters when viewed in a Web 

browser.<BR><BR>



This is the beginning of a second paragraph. Unlike last month's example, this time

there is a break between paragraphs, done by inserting two BReak tags. Since HTML

ignores things like carriage returns in your HTML code, it's necessary to include

a BReak tag if you want a line break in a certain spot, or two BReak tags if you

also want a blank line after the paragraph break.<BR><BR>



The headings at the top of the page illustrate the use of the Heading tag, including

the "CENTER" attribute. Now <A HREF="980202.html">view the code for this page</A>.
