Learning HTML- Part I
HTML, which stands for Hyper-Text Markup Language, is a scripting language used for designing web pages. Its first version known as HTML Tags was made public in 1991.
The basic structure of HTML consists of elements known as tags. These tags are enclosed in angle brackets (e.g. <html>) which form the code of the web page.
When the whole code is ready for execution, it is opened with a suitable browser which interprets the HTML code and performs the functions associated with the respective tags.
Many outsourcing software development service providing companies makes use of HTML for designing static web pages. HTML acts as building blocks for web pages. Objects, images, forms and other applications can be embedded in web pages using HTML.Tags are basically of two types, namely Single tags and paired tags. Each tag has opening and closing like <body> is known as opening tag and </body> is known as closing tag.
- Single tags do not require closing tags.
- Paired tags have a proper opening and closing.
There are different types of HTML tags. These tags are divided into categories on the basis of their usage for creating the web page (static).To start with; let’s use a small snippet to describe how to go about it.
For example:
<html>
<title>my page</title>
<body>
<p>What is html? </p>
</body>
</html>
Here, the content between <html> and </html> describes the web page. The title of the web page is described by enclosing title in the <title> and </title> tag. <Body> tag defines the document’s body. Most of the tags are used inside <body> tag only.
