  1. HTML Heading: In HTML headings are most important which shows the size of text. In html heading less will be heading number more will be the size of heading. In html heading can be defined by <h1></h1> tags.

For example: <p> this is first paragraph</p>

                       <p>this is another paragraph</p>

  1. HTML Links: if there are number of pages in and we want to link these pages each other then anchor tag can be used which is used for creating hyperlink and connecting one page to another page.

For example: suppose a page to which you saved by a.html and another page to which you creating by b.html and wants to links these pages then it can be done by this.

a.html which is in your system when you opened it will give a URL which is to be noted down and paste it another page on which you want to make link. It can be done by

<a href=" C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.abc\My Documents\a2.html">xyz</a>

  1. HTML Images: if you want to add images in your text then you add image by inserting image tag. For adding image select a image go to its properties and then copy source.

for example: <img src="path name" />
