Viewing the HTML source of a Web page is one of the easiest ways to learn HTML. If you see something on a Web site, and want to know how they did it, view the source. Or if you just like their layout, view the source. I learned a lot of HTML simply by viewing the source of Web pages that I saw. It's a great way for beginners to learn HTML.
