ok. so. the bottom most line is the thickest string on your guitar - the low E. And the top string is the high E. Here:
E----
B----
G----
D----
A----
E----

then the numbers on each "string" (line) are the fret number. and zero (0) means you just play the open string. and you read the tab from left to right like you would writing.
so like this:
E---------------------|
B---------------------|
G---------------------|
D---------------------|
A-------------0--2--3-|
E----0--2--3----------|

would be: low e open, f#, g, open a, b, c.

Now that is a sort of sloppy explanation, I don't know if you understood anything but here is a more detailed tutorial (and cool site for learning guitar-there are also videos):
