HTML Language

HTML is a markup language used to define the structure and layout of web pages. It uses tags to describe headings, paragraphs, lists, links and other elements. Some key tags needed in an HTML document are <html> to enclose all other tags, <head> for metadata, and <body> which contains the visible page content. HTML allows embedding other languages to control design, text and graphics. Being platform independent, the same HTML code can be viewed on any device.

Intro to HTML
• HTML is a language for describing web pages.
• HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language
• HTML is not a programming language, it is a markup language
• A markup language is a set of markup tags
• HTML uses markup tags to describe web pages
• Define tags <html><body> <head>….etc
• Allow to embed other scripting languages to manipulate design layout, text and
graphics
• Platform independent
• It is a platform independent language that can be used on any platform such as
Windows, Linux, Macintosh, and so on. To display a document in web it is essential
to mark-up the different elements( headings, paragraphs , tables, etc) of the
document with the HTML tags.
The objective of HTML
• Create, save and view a HTML document
• Format a web page using section heading tags
• Describe Ordered and Unordered lists
• Explain graphics in HTML document
• Describe hypertext links and making text/image
link
Tags that are required to create a HTML document are:

• <HTML>.............</HTML>
• <HEAD>.............</HEAD>
• <BODY>.............</BODY>
  
HTML tag --> <html></html>
• The <HTML> tag encloses all other HTML tags and associated text
within your document. It is an optional tag. You can create an HTML
document that omits these tags, and your browser can still read it
and display it. But it is always a good form to include the start and
stop tags. The format is: <HTML>
• Your Title and Document (contains text with HTML tags) goes here
• Most HTML tags have two parts, an opening tag and closing tag. The
closing tag is the same as the opening tag, except for the slash mark
e.g. </HTML>. The slash mark is always used in closing tags.
HEAD tag --><head></head>
• The <head> element is a container for metadata
(data about data) and is placed between the <html>
tag and the <body> tag.
• Metadata is data about the HTML document.
Metadata is not displayed.
• Metadata typically define the document title,
character set, styles, scripts, and other meta
information.
BODY tag--><body></body>
• The <body> tag defines the document's body.
• The <body> element contains all the contents of an HTML document,
such as headings, paragraphs, images, hyperlinks, tables, lists, etc.
•  There can only be one <body> element in an HTML document.
• The Format is:
<BODY>
Your Document goes here
</BODY>
