INTRODUCTION TO HTML
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is the standard markup language used to create web pages. It's the backbone of a website, providing the structure and content that the web browser renders to the user.
Here's a brief introduction to HTML:
*What is HTML?*
HTML is a markup language that uses tags (elements) to define the different parts of a web page, such as headings, paragraphs, images, links, forms, tables, and more.
*Basic HTML Structure:*
1. *DOCTYPE*: Defines the document type and HTML version.
2. *HTML*: The root element, which contains all other elements.
3. *HEAD*: Contains metadata about the document (title, charset, links to external files).
4. *BODY*: Contains the visible content of the web page.
*HTML Elements:*
- *Tags*: Surround content to define its purpose (e.g., <p> for paragraphs).
- *Attributes*: Add additional information to tags (e.g., <a href="(link unavailable)">).
- *Elements*: The combination of tags and content (e.g., <p>This is a paragraph</p>).
*Common HTML Elements:*
- Headings (h1-h6)
- Paragraphs (p)
- Links (a)
