HTML(Hyper Text Markup Language)

❖ INTRODUCTION

→ HTML( Hyper Text Markup Language)is a scripting language used to structure web
pages and their content. HTML is the basic building block of the web, defining its
structure and meaning. HTML elements, such as paragraphs, lists, images, and data
tables, tell web browsers how to display a page's content.
→ HTML is a set of markup symbols or codes that are inserted into a file that is intended
to be displayed on the internet. The text is saved as an HTML file and viewed through
a web browser, which reads the file and translates the text into a visible form.
→ Tim Berners-Lee developed HTML in 1989 at CERN, the world's first web browser, as
a publishing language to display content within it. HTML is primarily used for static
websites, and other technologies are generally used to describe a web page's
appearance or functionality. For example, CSS is used to describe a web page's
appearance, while JavaScript is used to describe its functionality

❖ Basic Tags of HTML
➢ HTML Tag: There are lots of programming language which are used to create web pages but if
the first tag is<html> then its tells the web browser that this file contains HTML coded information.
➢ HEAD Tag: The information stored/written in head tag does not dispaly within the webpage. This
tag contains script language code like java script, VB Script, CSS.
➢ TITLE Tag: The information stored/written in title tag does is dispalyed in the title bar of the web
page.
➢ BODY Tag: It contains all the tags, text and images that a browser displays as the body of an
HTML document. It is used to indicate the start and end of the web page. It is nested within the
HTML tag.
➢ MARQUEE Tag: The HTML<marquee> tag defines a scrolling text area in the HTML document
that moves across the page in a horizontal or vertical direction. By default, text found within
the<marquee> tag will scroll from right to left. The < marquee> tag has been deprecated in HTML5
and should no longer be used. It is recommended that you use CSS instead to create a similar
scrolling effect.
