Can anyone explain this HTML code to me?

[James Flanagan]

I have been reading and rereading the Filepro manual regarding the html features, and I have just not been able to wrap my mind around it.

I have attached an image directly from the manual, and I have tried to test the sample code, and just like i suspected, it did not work.  based on the sample, i end up the following code:

:' Create hithere.htm document:HTML "1" :CR "hithere.htm" :TI "Hi There"

:' Start Body:HTML "1" :BO 

:' Header1 Text Line:HTML "1" :H1 "Hi There America!"

:' Close Document:HTML "1" :CL 


Because filepro ignores everything after the 3rd colon (not to mention deletes everything beyond colon #3 in a syntax check), I cannot identify how this code could ever work because each line technically always ends with HTML "1" and ignores all the really important code that comes after it.  

Clearly, i am missing something, but i have not been able to identify what that might be.  I would be very appreciative if someone would be so kind to enlighten me on this.  Thank you very much,
