 Basic HTML Tags
HTML Structure
 HTML is comprised of “elements” and “tags”
§ Begins with <html> and ends with </html>

 Elements (tags) are nested one inside another:

 Tags have attributes:

 HTML describes structure using two main sections:


<head> and <body>
HTML Code Formatting
 The HTML source code should be formatted to
increase readability and facilitate debugging.
§ Every block element should start on a new line.
§ Every nested (block) element should be indented.
§ Browsers ignore multiple whitespaces in the page source, so
formatting is harmless.
 For performance reasons, formatting can be
sacrificed
First HTML page
<html>
<head>
<title>This is document title</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is a heading</h1>
<p>Hello World!</p>
</body>
</html>
First HTML Page: Tags

An HTML element consists of an opening tag, a closing tag and the content inside.
First HTML Page: Header
First HTML Page: Body
Basic HTML Tags

 <a> for link
 <b> to make bold text
 <strong> for bold text with emphasys
 <body> main HTML part
 <br> for break
 <div> it is a division or part of an HTML document
 <h1>... for titles
 <i> to make an italic text
 <img> for images in document
 <ol> is an ordered list, <ul> for an unordered list
 <li> is a list item in bulleted (ordered list)
 <p> for paragraph
 <span> to style part of text
HTML Elements
 An HTML element is defined by a start tag, some content, and an end tag:
<tagname>Content goes here...</tagname>
 The HTML element is everything from the start tag to the end tag:
 <h1>My First Heading</h1>
 <p>My first paragraph.</p>
 Some HTML elements have no content (like the <br> element). These
elements are called empty elements. Empty elements do not have an end
tag!

tart tag Element content End tag


<h1> My First Heading </h1>
<p> My first </p>
paragraph.
<br> none none
HTML attributes
HTML attributes provide additional information about HTML
elements.
 All HTML elements can have attributes

 Attributes provide additional information about elements

 Attributes are always specified in the start tag

 Attributes usually come in name/value pairs


like: name="value“

 The <a> tag defines a hyperlink. The href attribute


specifies the URL of the page the link goes to:

<a href="https://www.google.com">google homepage</a>


HTML comments
 Comment is a piece of code which is ignored by any
web browser. It is a good practice to add comments into
your HTML code, especially in complex documents, to
indicate sections of a document, and any other notes to
anyone looking at the code. Comments help you and
others understand your code and increases code
readability.

 HTML comments are placed in between <!-- ... --> tags.


So, any content placed with-in <!-- ... --> tags will be
treated as comment and will be completely ignored by
the browser.
Headings

§ Headings are important because search engines use


the headings to index the structure and content of
your web pages.
<h1> text </h1> -- largest of the six
<h2> text </h2>
<h3> text </h3>
<h4> text </h4>
<h5> text </h5>
<h6> text </h6> -- smallest of the six

align="position" --left (default), center or right


<P> and <center> tag
