HTML and Web Authoring Software

After this week's readings I realized that EAD coding (the coding that I have experience in) is not much different than HTML at all. I am seeing similarities in the tag names and the format. This actually makes me feel confident in my future ability to understand and use HTML coding. I know that for EAD coding that there is a book and online thesaurus-like resource for looking up tags names and circumstances in which they are used. I did further research to see if something of a similar resource existed and I was able to find this listing of tags http://www.w3schools.com/tags/

I also was wondering while doing research on HTML how HTML affects the placement of the text on the web page. To me it seems like HTML code is more to get the content onto the web page, but as far as making the title a certain font or font size, would that be something that you can do with HTML or is that another step in the process of building a webpage?
