BASIC HTML STRUCTURE


An HTML document is divided into
two main sections, the head and the
01 body. The reason for this division is
that the head is to contain metadata,
and the body is to contain the
information to be displayed on the
web page.

In HTML, the <head> section contains


metadata about a webpage, like the
title, character encoding, and links to
02
external stylesheets, which is not
directly displayed on the page, while
the <body> section holds all the
visible content that users see on the
webpage, including text, images, and
videos. The title tag's purpose is to
identify a web page and help users
and search engines understand what
the page is about.

COMMON HTML TAGS


1. <html></html> The <html> tag defines the
01 document as a web page. ...
2. <head></head> The <head> tag represents the
head section of the HTML document. ...
3. <title></title> As the name suggests, the <title>
tag specifies the web page's title. ...
4. <body></body>

02 The <h1> to <h6> HTML elements represent six


levels of section headings. <h1> is the highest
section level and <h6> is the lowest. By default, all
heading elements create a block-level box in the
layout, starting on a new line and taking up the
full width available in their containing block

An unordered list ( <ul> ) is used to create a list of


03
items in no particular order i.e. the order of items is
not relevant. By default, the items in this list will be
marked with bullets. Whereas, an ordered list ( <ol>
) is used to create a list of items in a specific order.

HTML AND IMAGES


To add an image to a webpage using HTML,
you can use the <img> tag and the src
attribute to specify the image's location. The
alt attribute in an HTML img tag provides a
textual description of an image for users
who can't see it. This includes people who
use screen readers, text-based browsers, or
have visual disabilities. It also helps if the
image doesn't load or displays incorrectly.

FUTURE OF HTML
Adobe suggests a gradual shift for HTML's future,
integrating XML while maintaining HTML's current
structure and behavior. Here's a simplified
breakdown:
Phase 1: HTML is updated minimally to support XML.
Phase 2: HTML adopts a well-formed XML syntax,
alongside the current HTML syntax.
Phase 3: HTML's behavior is standardized through an
XML Document Object Model (DOM) with CSS,
making all HTML tags work in a consistent way.
Phase 4: HTML transitions fully to XML, with its
original presentation behaviors preserved.
This phased approach is intended to make HTML's
evolution smooth and compatible with XML.
