By stealing people's codes. Seriously—back when I was 14/15 (~six/seven years ago) I used to use View Source/Firebug/what have you to look at the HTML, convert it to BBCode, then alter it so it wasn't a complete ripoff. However,
W3Schools and
PPN Studio/PokéCommunity's CSS Help & Resources guide (or any forum's CSS guide, for that matter) actually helped me get a better understanding of the elements that went into [div] and [span] tags. I especially like using W3Schools because you can test the HTML/CSS!
(Also, just to put it out there, I don't mind if people use my codes to try and learn how elements within [div] and [span] tags work. No credit necessary unless the code ends up being similar to the one they're messing with.)
