 * So i just got thrown into WordPress to help with someones site. Is there a way
   i can get into the code of the Site aka the html (or do i have to go through 
   the stuff ported to the host)? i have found the .css and some of the pages seem
   to have little html in them but there is no html page. Let me know if im looking
   in the wrong places please.

 * The HTML is generated by templates. These are mostly, pretty standard but will
   have some variation depending on the themes.
 * If you want to edit HTML you need to identify the template that generates it 
   and edit there in the PHP.
 * You can get plugins that will show you which templates are called in a page –
   I think one is called Reveal Template.
 * You might also find it helpful to read up on the word press file hierarchy in
   the Codex or wherever; there’s plenty of stuff out there to read about.
 * [Edit] If you are looking at customising a theme, take a look at using a child
   theme: also in the Codex
