The top tabs change in 11.0 is BS. I understand their reasoning behind it, but I don't care: I want it how I want it, and I resent having such changes forced on me with no other recourse (just like I resent the forced "Chromization" of Firefox; thankfully, there are ways to return sanity to its UI). I'll be sticking with 10.0.2 until I have absolutely no choice but to upgrade.

Opera 12 would be better.

Hey VG ,

I am 11 year old. I am trying to learn what is HTML through the website w3schools.com/html/html_intro.asp.

I noticed that angle brackets are something that are widely used. I am just not understanding how to type an angle bracket through the keyboard. There are 2 keys with left and right angle brackets printed on them but I just can;t seem to understand how to type it . Can anyone help me ?

^^ All those characters which are given on top of a key can be typed by pressing Shift key and that key. So if you want to type < then press and hold SHIFT key and then press , key and it'll type < for you.
