What is HTML?
HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language and is a coding langauge that requires no special software at all, You can create a html document in notepad, it’s that simple. HTML is used all over the web. It’s ability to incorporate images, text, links, files & more very easy makes it a major standard for most websites on the internet.
My first HTML webpage
Okay first things first, lets explain a little about how a html page works. A HTML webpage is made up of tags. A tag defines a certain value of a webpage for example; one tag could be setting the size of some text on the webpage or maybe changing the background colour of the page. Creating a collection of these tags will create a webpage by telling the web browser (example: internet explorer) how to display it for your visitors.
Quick Note: For a web browser to realise what a webpage is you must save the HTML webpage in .html or .htm format.
okay now lets go to create our first webpage. First of all i’ll Provide an example of a simple HTML webpage then explain each line in detail.
<html>
<head>
<title>Page title</title>
</head>
<body>
Hello World.
</body>
</html>
Open your favourite text editor for windows users try NOTEPAD & for MAC users use simpletext.
copy the following html code (code in the grey box above) into our text editor now save it as htmlpage.html (remember to not save as .txt)
Now open internet explorer goto: file: open file or just open: browse for the file we’ve just created and click open. The following code will be changed into your first html file, Well Done!
Now lets explain the following HTML example line by line:
The first line is the tag this tells the web browser that it’s the start of the page if you notice at the last line its the same tag with a / in the tag this means it’s the end .
The tag is a tag were you store your document title and meta tags again it closes using the tag.
The to inform the web browser we’ve closed it.
The tag tell the browser everything between this tag is displayed within the web browsers window.
Hello world is the text that is now displayed in the browser window.
Good Luck
ByeBye
