on my last blog for understanding the basics of HTML, I was able to explain what HTML meant and also what HTML tags where. Now open your index.html page. If you have no clue what I am talking about. I would consider going back to part one for a better understanding. Well continuing on where we left off, go on to your index.html page and in your simple text editor and type in the following with no spaces in between them, < html > also press the enter key and type in < /html >. Now what does the < html > tag mean? The tag allows for your web browser to know it's the beginning and ending of your HTML document. though it is saved as a webpage, it is still a document. By now you should have in your document two tags, the start and end of html. Next we will insert the tag that allows the text to be seen on browsers overhead, for example, as one may be typing a blog, one sees Submit Blog Entry | Progressive U - Mozilla Firefox. Usually for this tag one usually inserts their website url, so others can remember and see where they are visiting. Now lets head of to this tag. In between both tags insert the next text into your document, < head > then press the enter key and type in the following text < /head >. By now you should have something similar to this:< html >
< head >
< /head >
< /html >
remember that there should be no spaces in between the tags
< nospacesinbetweenhere >. Okay, where off to a good head start on creating a web page. Once we get into the easy and fun part of creating a web page, one tends to get more involved in the process. If you have any questions concerning about any of the two of several understanding the basics of HTML, please let me know. I will try and explain to you on what your question and concerns may be.

I like your idea, but I'm not sure it's what users here are really looking for. ;-)

Well the reason why I decided to post this blog was at the fact that many would like to set a website of their own that will benefit the need of their belief in society, such as War, Abortion, Hunger issues, Sexuality, etc. One may use a web page for several needs. Though, I know what you mean and are trying to say.
That's cool. And if they decide not to use our rich text editor (like me) they can always type the post in HTML. All the comments default to HTML anyhow. (Psst...that might be a good blog to write next time you blog...)
