making your text bold, underlined, italic

Lesson 5

This is my first sentence

The sentence above is how your first sentence should look at the moment. Lets make it bold

This is my first sentence

We do this by using opening and closing bold tags <b> and </b>

When you have more than one tag on the same line, they must end in the exact opposite order that they were added. example

<1><2><3>My sentence </3></2></1>

notice that <1> was added first so it ends last

<3> was added last so it ends first

ok here is the code for the sentence that we currently have on our page

<font color=#FF0000 size=5 face=Arial>This is my first sentence.</font>

lets add the bold tags remembering the ascending and descending order.

<font color=#FF0000 size=5 face=Arial><b>This is my first sentence.</b></font>

This is my first sentence

Your sentence should now look like the one above.

lets make it underlined as well

To do this you need to add underline tags <u> and </u>

<font color=#FF0000 size=5 face=Arial><b><u>This is my first sentence.</u></b></font>

It does not matter which one (bold or underline) comes first, as long as they close in the correct order.

This is my first sentence

ok lets make it italic

The code for italic is <i> </i>

<font color=#FF0000 size=5 face=Arial><b><u><i>This is my first sentence.</i></u></b></font>

This is my first sentence

COOL!

Lets make it only bold and italic without the underline

<font color=#FF0000 size=5 face=Arial><b><i>This is my first sentence.</i></b></font>
