How do I add "controls" or commands to a webpage using HTML?
When writing code for a webpage using HTML, I know how to display text, images etc
However, how will I make the user interact with the page?
I would like to create a situation where, for example, the user enters the "R" key and an image changes to another image, or "W" and an image appears. These are just examples, to give you an idea of what I mean by controls.

HTML is a markup language to display a document with text and images in a browser. It has no programmability. For that you will need to add some Javascript (or similar) that will allow the user to interact with the web page but you are then entering the realms of a web app rather than a web page.

To react to keypresses, you need to add an event handler to the window using JavaScript.
