This is a paragraph of text.
And this is the start of a new paragraph. This word is in bold. Whilst this word is in italic.
Of course, you don't have to have bold or italic text embedded inside a paragraph. See how this italic text is also bold, because it is 'embedded'/'nested' inside the bold start and end tags. It is REALLY important, that you understand this!!! This sentence is supposed to be the start of a new paragraph, but because I've missed out the starting 'p' element, the browser thinks this is still part of the last paragraph!Take a good look at the source code for this page (Remember : Select the 'View' menu, and then select the 'Source' option). You are going to be using these three elements a lot, so you need to know how to use them!
