Hello Ian,

Welcome to the world of HTML (HyperText Markup Language). It is a tool for formatting documents in web pages like this one. If you CLICK HERE you will find a thread that talks some more about this. If I recall this will also give you some links for web pages that explain all of this in more depth.

Don't feel bad, all of us novices stumble at first and type in lyrics that all run together. Using the notepad for composing is a good start, because all of the letters take up the same amount of space. Where you put in a return on Notepad, you have to type in <br>. This makes a line BReak. That is the most crucial one. We are still developing an acceptable technique for putting chords in songs. If you click on "Forum Search" on the Main Forum page and search for "HTML" (without the quotation marks) you will find several threads that discuss all of this.

I hope you catch on, it's not all that hard. You will find much to appreciate here and, of course, we all look forward to new lyrics.

Keep on 'Cattin'.

Roger in Baltimore
