This Section deals with special characters and entities 
< is the less then symbol and
> is the greater then symbol 
€ is the euro sign 
Most special characters like the ampersand can be printed by using a designated name
like & or number like &

Some phrase elements are: 
The tag indicates emphasis.
<ABBR>The <ABBR> </ABBR> tag indicates an abbreviation </ABBR> 
<CODE>The <CODE> </CODE> tag designates a fragment of computer code.</CODE> 
<DFN>The <DFN> </DFN> tag indicates that this is the defining instance of the enclosed term.</DFN> 
<CITE>The <CITE> </CITE> tag is used to contains a citation or a reference to other sources.</CITE>

Then you have the basic physical / Character formatting tags: 
The tags are used to bold text 
 tags are used to Italic text 
 tags are used to Underlined text 
<S></S><S> tags are used to Striked through text</S> 
 are used to place text below the line like Subscript text 
 are used to place text above the line like Superscript text

Then we have tags to change the font of text: 
This is font size one and font color red 
This is font size three and font color green 
This is font size five and font color is blue 
This is font size -2 ==> smaller text 
This is font size +2 ==> big text 
<BASEFONT SIZE=1>This is BASEFONT SIZE one 
<BASEFONT SIZE=5>This is BASEFONT SIZE five 
<BASEFONT SIZE=3>Making sure you reset the basefont back after your done is important.
