 * Hello,
 * Can you please tell me how I can add delete this function and use html in header.
   php instead?
 * I need to do quite a bit of work on the header and I find it confusing to keep
   editing the functions in functions.php. I’m using the skeleton.css theme.
 * Can anyone help?

 * You can’t. wp_head() is used internally by WordPress and must be present in a
   theme’s header template file.
