Web Page with HTML

HyperText Markup Language


HTML can be used to display any type of document that is available on the web. The computer that maintains the document (host computer) and the computer that displays the document may be at different geographical locations.HTML is a versatile language and can be used on any platform or desktop. Being platform independent documents written in HTML can be viewed on any platform. HTML elements are used to markup the document and inform the browser like Microsoft  Internet Explorer , about the action to be taken when a certain element is specified.

Features of HTML


HTML allows us to:
  • Provide tags to make the document look attractive. Tags are used to represent the various elements of a Web page, like titles and images.
  • Use graphics and display text in different fonts, sizes and color. You can enhance the presentation of the document using these elements.
  • Create Hyper text links, also known as hyperlinks, to other documents or other portions of the same document. Hyperlinks connect the documents present on the web.
  • Display data in a tabular format.
  • Create Multiple windows in a web page.  

Planning a  Web Page

  • Identify the layout of the Web Page
  • Identify the HTML tags for the Web Page
  • Identify the title to be displayed in the browser window
  • Identify the content of the Web page 
  • Identify the background and location of each image for the webpage
  • Identify the characteristics of section header
  • Identify the characteristics of the text
  • Identify the name of the file
  • Identify the name of the web
  • Identify the browser to be used

Structure of a HTML document

An HTML document consists of text and tags.The text is used to convey the data of a document
and the tags are used to differentiate various parts of the document. The tags represent the HTML elements in a Web Page.

Tags of a HTML Document

Use the left angular bracket "<"  followed by the name of the tag and a right angular bracket ">" .
The brackets are used as delimiter of the tag. The tags are not case sensitive.
