Introduction

Making your text different sizes allows you to create different parts of your page that stand out with bigger or smaller text. In this step, you will learn how to change the size of your text.
Size Tag
To change the size, you need to put in the size tag which looks like <FONT SIZE="#">. The starting tag is <FONT SIZE="#"> and the closing tag is </FONT>. The # symbol is replaced by the size of text you want, which ranges 1 through 7. Here is an example of the size tag.

index.html - Notepad
....<BODY>

<FONT SIZE="3"> Hello World! </FONT>

</BODY>....

My Homepage - Microsoft Internet Explorer
Hello World!
