CHAPTER

Getting Started with HTML 2

Does HTML provide for more than one level of

heading?

Yes. HTML actually contains six heading levels. The

elements are essentially the same: Each is the letter

h followed by a number, 1–6. Your main topics

should be designated with H1. Subtopics under the

main should be H2, with subtopics under that H3,

and so on.

Can I change the size and font of the heading?

Yes. Web designers have access to a powerful

formatting language known as Cascading Style

Sheets (CSS) that allows you to change the

appearance of most anything on the screen,

including the size and font of headings. CSS is

covered in detail later in Chapters 4 and 5.
