I know how to do alignment to the center, right, and left.
how do I do tabs and indentation?
also, when I do something like this
<h1>Header</h1>
<p>Paragraph</p>
I get this ...
Header
Paragraph
notice the space between Header and Paragraph without <br>
how can I get rid of that space?
Further to my previous response in another thread:
Randomly asking questions is a very inefficient way to learn how to build web pages (for everyone). You need to read up on HTML and CSS. Your question isn't even at a decent beginner level - it's what your Gran might ask.
A browser lays out HTML according to CSS stylesheets, including a default one built-in. That will set, for example, the 'margin' and 'padding' of various elements, unless superseded by a custom stylesheet (which is usual).
Linkedin has very good tutorial videos for a monthly fee - formerly the excellent Lynda.com. You may also find good stuff on YouTube.

They may be a bit dated today, but books I liked at one point include:
Learning Web Design, Jennifer Robbins
CSS Pocket Reference, Eric Meyer
HTML5 for Masterminds, Juan Gauchat
Learning JavaScript, Tim Wright
Modern JavaScript, Larry Ullman
.
Maybe one could use pseudo class selectors (like ":checked")
to implement tabs with CSS only.
Don't want JavaScript or cookies.

No idea. You need to explain what you want, instead of mentioning (very vaguely) assumed solutions to unspecified problems. In particular, “tab” can mean a dozen things, or more.

This was an easy one. The spacing is caused by default vertical margins
for elements. Put this into your <head>:
<style>
h1 { margin-bottom: 0: }
h1 + p { margin-top: 0: }
</style>
h1 { margin-bottom: 0: }
Put this into your <head>:
<style>
h1 { margin-bottom: 0: }
h1 + p { margin-top: 0: }
</style>
<style>Maybe you wanted to type a semicolon instead of a colon
h1 { margin-bottom: 0: }
h1 + p { margin-top: 0: }
</style>
in both cases.

To indent the first line of a paragraph, see <https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS22/selector.html#first-line-pseudo>.

"0:" is not a valid value for "margin-bottom". Try "0ex".

If you use em (as you should) you needn't do this.

I'm sure you realize this, but I'm just saying it for the
sake of other readers:
In CSS, the semicolon does /not/ terminate a declaration,
it /separates/ declarations within a ruleset.
ruleset : selector? '{' S* declaration? [ ';' S* declaration? ]* '}' S*;
Therefore, if a ruleset has just a single declaration,
no semicolon is required.
