HTML Tags




Before you begin entering codes into your signature box, you have to know the different tags that go along with certain codes.

there are a few main tags that you will want to remember. They are:




<<>html<>> which stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. That is the language that computers understand as a code for things you want the computer to do. All codes go after this tag.

<<>/html<>> This tag means stop hyper text markup language. All html codes for your sig go before this tag. There should never be more than one pair of HTML tags in a signature box. (NOTE: most tags have a stop tag. if you open with <<>blah blah blah<>> you close it with <<>/blah blah blah<>>) ;

<<>head<>> This is the second tag you want to put on your sig box. Things that you want at the head of your page go here. This includes the title. To enter a title, use this tag, then this tag:

<<>title<>> After this tag, put the title of your page, and then close the tag with <<>/title<>>

<<>/head<>> This is the closing tag for <<>head<>> and is placed after you have finished making the head of your page.

<<>body<>> This is where most of you codes go. There are 2 types of body tags: <<>body bgcolor="white text="white"<>> which changes the color of background and text, and <<>body background="http://url of image"<>> which makes your background in the form of a gif or jpg which are 2 types of images. Everything that is in the body of the page goes after this. (again, you will have to close this tag with

<<>/body<>>;

<<>font<>> which is used before text to specify size and color of text like this: <<>font color=white size=2<>>your words here<>> This also closes with <<>/font<>> which is placed after your words.

When you are finished, this should be your basic tag layout:

<<>html<>>

<<>head<>>

<<>title<>>

<<>/title<>>

<<>/head<>>

<<>body<>>

<<>font<>>

<<>/font<>>

<<>/body<>>

<<>/html<>>
