KISS HTML
You CAN write HTML code from scratch

The "COMMENT" tag or
<!--YouCanPutAnyWordsHere-->


A minor issue is the exclamation point (!). This character tells the browser to ignore what comes after it.
For example, if you are trying a color font in your web page and want to try it with color, and then without, but you don't want to have to remove the tag completely, you can just put an exclamation point in it:

<FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#FF0033" FACE="ARIAL,GENEVA">
This is the example with color.

<!FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#FF0033" FACE="ARIAL,GENEVA">
This is the example without color.

It allows you to "delete" a tag, without actually removing it, and to re-instate the tag by simply removing the exclamation point.

The "COMMENT" tag doesn't do anything, which is the whole point. Browsers ignore it. Therefore it is very helpful in allowing you to make notes within your HTML document (web page). The format is simple:
<!--XXX-->

You can put any letters, words or characters where the "XXX" is. This is helpful if you are writing HTML code.
You can put a note to yourself, in the code, knowing that it won't show up on the webpage.
For example:
<!--##### Put the new Java applet here ####-->
