There are plenty of good HTML editors online or to download.

Seems like a good 80% of the sandbox was dedicated to tables. Does anyone ever even use tables in HTML? In all the years on FR, I don’t think I have ever come across a post where a FReeper used a table, nevermind used colored cell spacing within the table with the right justified text and a cell border with a different color still, with an odd number of columns.
Thanks!
And A Happy & Healthy 2013!
Well, why would anyone want to learn to read and write a foreign language, when there is Babel Fish or Google translate available?
Also, an HTML editor would just be overkill for most posters on FR. I only use 4 types of tags regularly when posting here: paragraphs, images, hyperlinks, and text formatting. It would take me longer to go to an editor to parse those out for me than it takes me to just type them out.

“Does anyone ever even use tables in HTML?”
You use them constantly when you are building webpages, although it’s become pretty common to do the same kind of thing with CSS positioning instead. On FR though, most people don’t use them much, but you will see them used by some posters when posting articles, for example, the Canteen threads, or various posts on the Religion form.
w3schools.com for a HTML tutorial and a bunch of other stuff.
Marquee is one of those tags that only works on a couple browsers. If your browser doesn’t support it, you will just see the regular text without the marquee effect.
I just posted on FR here: Why Americans Are Stupid using several tables. Scroll down, you'll see them.
Kind of funny, I did it about 20 minutes before reading your post.
Yeah, the best part of that site is the built-in editors, so you can play with the code in any tutorial and see how the changes will display on a live website.
I use them all the time on my own web sites though, on EVERY page.
Links aren’t difficult, but you do need to take care . . . I recommend that the newbie always preview a link and open the link in a separate window, in order to verify that indeed it takes the reader where you intend.A fine point: if you want the link you’re making to take the reader to a specific reply in a thread, you can determine the URL for that purpose by navigating to that reply and clicking on the reply number. This will position the start of the reply at the top of your screen, and the URL which navigated you there will appear in your browser’s URL window.
