Thanks.
Let me start with the basics. And that will see use facing HTML:
Hypertext Markup Language abbreviated HTML is a language of the web, used to describe how a page is to be rendered.
The interesting part about HTML and other web based and even programming languages is the fact that they use alphabetical languages.
You can easily grab them, if you make more use of them. Unlike what many web development tutors say, cramming it is a wrong option. It is better used. Over time the syntax will get mastered and HTML debugging is one of the easiest considering the fact that it is not a programming language.
Now lets get to action with the basic rendering:
To start a HTML page, you need to have a text editor. Like notepad at least. You save each line of tags/codes as test. html
Ensure whatever name given an ending extension of . html follows.
Now lets write out first HTML tags.
<html></html>
The tag above always start a html page. It is used to declare the beginning of a html page
now in HTML, many tags must be closed as seen in the second html written.
</html>
When tags are opened the same named tags ought to be closed. Although not all.
Lets write our first HTML and you will test it in a browser after compiling it by saving it a test. html using notepad.
<html>
<head>
<title>My first website</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello, i am developing my first website</h1>
<p>This tutorial will see me being a new born breed to the webmasters league in Nigeria</p>
<p>Watch out</p>
</body>
</html>
Explantion: Like i said before writing this tags, every page starts with a html tag. Every, i mean every, if u use mozilla firefox use ctlr u to view the source code of anysite and u will see that it also started with html.
And if a tag starts, it has to close last, at least for this nature of tags that come with a closing tag.
There after the <html></html> or rather inside we placed a head tag <head></head> This tag is used to declare the head to a page. This where all the sites matters are placed like the author and all other relevand issues. Also style sheet can be placed there. But when we move to css or before the you will see a gazillion f things that are placed there. Inside the head is a title.
The title tag shows the title of the page as seen in the top of a browser. Lime this tutorials title is Tutorials on Building Interactive and Dynamic websites . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
There after was our body tag. This tag is where all the main contents of the site reside. Textual views, styles, and all other things.
It is the main part of a page. Just like in letter, we have subject. that serves as our <title></title> tag while <body></body> serves as where all the letter issues will go.
Inside it is where our <p></p> tag goes. This tag means paragraph. So little wonder on use, the text falls below to a new paragraph. <p>This place is meant for all text</p>
Text go in like how it was place above and in first test tags we generated.
Before the <p></p> was a <h1></h1> tag. This means Heading one.
There are six available headings and its works in a descending order. Texts placed in <h1> will be bigger that <h2> and <h2> will be bigger than <h3> and so on and forth till <h6>
The Heading tags are used to declare a head of a message or test. like in letters or notes.
Thanks. Hope you learnt from this lesson.
