When posting what does [Code] do? And what does Close Tags do?
Also it say's HTML is ON, what's that all about eh? Is it like BBCode but with <> these instead of these[]? If so what are the codes and what do they do?

Code does this:
Code:
[Select]
$a = 1 + 2;
and close tags (if you use the buttons above to open tags) closes them (i.e. puts all [/] bits in for you.
If you ever want to see how someone else did something, just click on the quote button to see their post in its BBCode format (you don't actually have to post.)
Also, don't forget, there is the "preview" button next to submit, so you can see what your post will look like before posting it.
HTML on means you can use certain html tags in posts, like bold, italic and so on, however some tags are still excluded (again, use the preview button if your not sure). (Some HTML tags are <b></b> <i></i> and <u></u> - which other ones are turned on I don't know).

Are there any HTMLs over and above the standard BBCode functions shown on the post page?
Still have no concept of what purpose [Code] serves. $a = 1 + 2?? what's that all about then??

I'm still in the dark as well about code. looks like it has the same function as quote but uses the word code instead?

Its code (as in programming stuff, me bread 'n' butter like!)
Basically it changes the font so its courier, which is monospaced (each letter takes up the same number of pixels width) making longs bits of code easier to read. Also, I think spaces are preserved.
i.e. Inside code:
Code:
[Select]
<table>
<tr>
<td>
Cell 1
</td>
<td>
Cell 2
</td>
</tr>
</table>
Not in code:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
Cell 1
</td>
<td>
Cell 1
</td>
</tr>
</table>
See the difference?
Oh, and which html tags are allowed is dependant on Mr. Bubba - he sets it in the board config, so ask him (but the answer is probably no, not many useful ones that BBCode doesn't do).

The only html allowed is
b,i,u,pre, though others such as br, p, etc will no doubt work as well.
BBcode offers enough for 99% of purposes and I only enable other stuff as and when it's necessary.

PRE does pretty much the same as [Code].
BR is a line break, same effect as pressing enter on the keyboard
P is for paragraphs, pretty much the same as above.
