A webpage editor is not required to edit the Forum in any way, You will need to follow the guide included in the .zip file to install the forum...

Head has all the information of the file which isn't in the body (what you see in the window). That is usually the title, but can also have meta-data, CSS class' declarations, Javascript declarations, etc.

<head> is placed  before <body>:
code:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

The head of the document is primarily used for the page title and putting in JavaScript codes that you want to be loaded before the body or the main part of the document is loaded. Best for variables that you need for any JavaScript scripts that you are using on the page...it has other uses but that's the main uses...

<font face=""> and inside the quotation marks include the font name...Whatever text you enter after that code will be in the font you chose....
Remember that the quotation marks do not have to be their but it is formal practise to put them there due to some really old browsers that require them.
Also its not a good idea to use a font that is not included on most PC's (if the font is not on the displaying comp it will not be displayed)

the best way to change the font is to put this in the head tag:

<style type="text/css">
body { font-family: Tahoma }
</style>

that way if you want to change the font, you only have to change it in there an all the fonts are changed.

RE: Forums...Where to get?!?
I strongly suggest you to learn proper html first, before you do anything else... As it seems that you don't know a single thing about html (no offense), you'll encounter many many many things you don't understand. So first learn html, then learn a bit php and then integrate a forum on your website...

You don't run, when you can't walk...

Whats a matter with simple steps hey?

Start with one of these, then work your way up. Very simple and you can have a go changing the colours and stuff.

Johnny_Mac, I don't believe he'll learn anything useful from proboards...however if he wants a good free forum they are acceptable...but these are better http://invisionfree.com/
They are the more n00bish friendly way of making a forum...
