Anything you put in this directory is accessible on the World Wide Web. You should now be able to go back to netscape and see a simple, generic web page at your Web address, as given above. To change your web page, you will have to edit it. This opens a window where you can edit your web page. Tags are also used to add things like images and applets to the page and to specify links to other pages.
Some tags occur in pairs.
Some tags can have modifiers to give more information. The SRC modifier gives the name of a file that contains the image. But it also has a closing tag. These tags provide information that can be used by the applet to customize its behavior. You can see an example of this on the starter web page that is provided for you.
