:::Thanks to both of you. Rjanang, You want to have a play with it? Looks perfect to me. Are you using ''Internet Explorer''? I do these in ''Safari''. Gary, maybe that is the problem. Can you give me an example of what an HTML tag is? I can then fix them.

:::: I strongly suggest you use templates. It's a lot cleaner, easier to use, and makes it harder to break things in general. I [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Tony1/Advanced_editing_exercises&diff=270629080&oldid=270621943 updated the first section to show how it's done], which you can do for the rest of the sections. I'll do a few now but it's 4 am for me, so I won't be up for long. <font face="Verdana">[[User:Gary King|<font color="#02b">Gary&nbsp;<b>King</b></font>]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Gary King|<font color="#02e">talk</font>]])</font> 09:08, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

::::: This is an example of an open HTML tag: {{bcode|1=<font color=maroon>This is maroon. <font color=black>This is black.}} This is incorrectly done; the {{bcode|<font>}} tags should be closed with a {{bcode|</font>}}. In fact, the page uses the tag correctly most of the time, but wherever {{bcode|1=<font color=black>}} is used in the code, it is used incorrectly like in my example, which is causing the page to appear a bit differently depending on the browser. <font face="Verdana">[[User:Gary King|<font color="#02b">Gary&nbsp;<b>King</b></font>]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Gary King|<font color="#02e">talk</font>]])</font> 09:27, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
