W3 Schools HTML Quiz

I took the W3 Schools HTML quiz. I scored a 20 out of 25, which is an 80%. I took 4 minutes and 9 seconds to complete the quiz. I guessed on numerous questions, so the results aren't necessarily accurate to what I know. I got the questions about the correct HTML for making a drop-down list, a text area, inserting an image, <iframe>, and HTML comments. Those are things I still need to learn, along with inserting background images and colors.

Intro to HTML

I used a W3 Schools tutorial to ease into HTML. Then I used Notepad to write my own code before using Internet Explorer to run my program.

I want to know more about HTML, more tags and how they work, and how they come together to form an entire webpage, with colors and fonts and images and nice layouts.
