Basic sizes

In the previous page, it was pointed out that H tags should not be used to change the size of text.

Instead, if you want a paragraph with big letters, enclose the words you want larger in BIG and /BIG tags, like this.

Equally, sometimes you want the equivalent of small print. You get this with the tags SMALL and /SMALL.

Actually, you can pile up BIG and SMALL tags. You can have a line where words get bigger, and bigger, and bigger, just by adding more BIG tags, while being careful to put in the corresponding /BIG tags. Or, indeed, smaller, and smaller.

Don't mix big and small tags.

To get the same effect as H1, you would have to use three sets of BIG tags and a B for bold tag which is covered later. For the same effect as H2, you would use two BIG tags and a B tag.

Is it the same?
