Hello all:
I am trying to learn HTML, and when I write a paragraph
and then open it, it opens just like I wrote it.
I run 98se IE6 so I am thinking that I have my puter
set wrong.
Any Ideas? Thank You

Do you mean it is showing the tags instead of the rendered HTML? If so, make sure the file has the correct extension (.htm or .html) - you may have the filename as something like page.html.txt.

If you are looking for a HTML tutorial, you might try this one: http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp

When I write to Notepad, Wordpad, or Word, and then I
close the page, IE save, save as, etc. and name the file
.html and then close it. It will open just like I closed it.
I think it is how my puter is set up, but I don't know how
to change it.

When entering a .html filename in the Save As dialog box, make sure you first select "All files" in the "Save as type" box otherwise you get .txt added on the end.
