Guide To HTML
What is HTML?
HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. HTML is how browsers see the page and know how to display it so it looks like what we see it as with images & text and more.
HTML is made up of special tags that determine the way the page is going to be displayed. The browser reads HTML documents that contain these tags, interprets them, then outputs the result.
What Do I need?
In theory not a lot, A simple text editor, such as notepad, and a browser, such as Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer, is all you need to begin making webpages.
You can edit HTML on:
Microsoft Frontpage, Macromedia Dreamweaver, NotePad or any text editing software.
What are the advantages of knowing it?
The fact that you are in complete control of your webpages when using HTML as opposed to HTML editors such as Microsoft FrontPage is one advantage. You will know your website like the back of your hand, which will allow you to update, modify, and add to it more easily.
What can HTML do?
HTML can only be used to create static web documents. This means that the information you put on a webpage using HTML cannot be changed dynamically, you must make changes manually.
HTML Page Layout:
A HTML Page consists of the following tags
<html>
<head>
<title>Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>
Page content goes here
</body>
</html>
That is a very basic page on the next tutorial we will be looking at HTML tags in more detail.
