It may sound complicated - but it's not. Basically it is series of tags used to format plain text files for the internet. Browsers use HTML tags to decide how to display or treat the contents of an HTML document. Attributes like bolding, color and size are all controlled by HTML tags and affect the look and feel of a document.
The following is a brief overview of some of the HTML tags you may find useful in developing your community site. All or most HTML tags work the same, regardless of browser type. If you can't find a tag listed here, or if you would like to know more - check out the Community HTML Resource page.
