It shouldn't make a difference at all. As long as you saved it as plain text and can open the source with notepad, it makes no difference. A browser parses for stuff it understands, i.e. tags.

Actually it does, but you're getting into some more advanced stuff there. For the purposes of this page, it makes little difference.
