INTRODUCTION TO

HTML
HTML is short for Hyper Text Markup Language.
Webpages are written in HTML - a simple scripting
language.
Hypertext is simply a piece of text that works as a link.
Markup Language is a way of writing layout
information within documents.
INTRODUCTION TO HTML
• When a browser opens an HTML file, the browser will
look for HTML codes in the text and use them to
change the layout, insert images, or create links to
other pages. The markup tells the Web browser how
to display a Web page's words and images for the
user. Each individual markup code is referred to as an
element but these elements are popularly known as
Tags.
UNDERSTAND TAGS AND THEIR
ATTRIBUTES IN HTML
• Tags
• Basic HTML code manipulates a plain text document to apply style and reference. It does so by
applying 'tags'. HTML tags are keywords (tag names) surrounded by angle brackets'<' and'>', like
<html>. HTML tags normally come in pairs like <html> and </html>. The first tag in a pair is the
start tag (opening tag) and the second tag is the end tag (closing tag). The end tag is written like a
start tag, with a forwarded slash before the tag name.
• There are two types of tags:
• Container tag: In HTML, tags that include both the start tag and end tag, are called container tag.
They contain the text between the opening and closing tags.
• For example,< body> text being formatted or defined </body>
• Empty tag: In HTML, tags that have only opening tag are called empty tag. There is no closing tag.
These tags do not acts on blocks of text.
• For example, <hr> and <br>.
UNDERSTAND TAGS AND THEIR
ATTRIBUTES IN HTML
• Attributes
• The attributes within the tag are extra bits of information. For
example, at some point you may want to give your page body a
background image or colour or perhaps some margin in any of the
side. All these things can be done using attributes.
• Attributes are always written in the opening tag. Attribute values
should always be enclosed within double quotes ("...").Different
attributes in the same tag are separated by a space.
• For example, <body background="nature.jpg">Usingthe
attributes</body>
STRUCTURE OF HTML DOCUMENT
STRUCTURE OF HTML
DOCUMENT
• <HTML></HTML> simply indicates the use of HTML code. They'll
show in every webpage, usually at start and end, and embrace
practically all the other codes.
• <HEAD></HEAD> mark the 'administrative building'. These will
encapsule the title, and enable certain scripts.
• <BODY></BODY> is located below the HEAD tags, and makes up most
of the document. All the information you'd like to include in your web
page i.e. the text, images, links, etc.

• Heading elements implement six levels of document headings, <hl> is


the most important and <h6> is the least. A heading element briefly

may be used by user agents, for example, to construct a table of
contents for a document automatically.

headings and H3 for major sub headings.
