Web pages are formatted using HTML tags. These tags are commands written between less than (<) and greater than (>) signs, also known as angle brackets , that indicate how the browser should display the text. There are opening and closing versions for many (but not all) tags, and the affected text is contained within the two tags. Both the opening and closing tags use the same command word but the closing tag carries an initial extra forward slash symbol /.

What the Browser Displays:
A Bit Of The Wizard
They left the cottage and walked through the trees until they found a little
spring of clear water, where Dorothy drank and bathed and
ate her breakfast.
She saw there was not much bread left in the basket, and the girl was thankful the
Scarecrow did not have to eat anything, for there was scarcely
enough for herself
and Toto for the day.
TIP:
To "read" the HTML file for any web page, choose to "view
source" from your browser's menu. This is good way to "check under the hood" and get a look at the tagging that is responsible for an effect you like. Learning from other's work is a good learning strategy; but just like other forms of expression, don't forget to credit your source.
