HTML Tutorial – 2
(Introduction to HTML)
What is
HTML and Why is it so Important to learn web developing?
It’s simple answer is it is a standard system for making the
core of web pages. HTML is the base of a web page, and is one of basics of all the
programming languages too. Because if you know HTML you have good chance to
learn other advanced programming languages too.
Before starting practicing HTML on a computer you must know
which programs you can use to create a HTML document. There are many kinds of
HTML editors available. You can simple use any kind of text editor like notepad
on your computer for this purpose. All you have to do is save your file with
file.html extension. Or you can use more advance editor like NOTepadd++ and
Dreamweaver.
Just make a new notepad file and save it with .html extension
or if you are using more advanced editor like Dreamweaver click on file>new>Html and then hit create
at the bottom. Just go ahead and erase everything prewritten on the page. And before
writing anything read this tutorial till the end.
So let’s start HTML. HTML basically works on “Tags”. A Tag is
a special format to input data into HTML to show it in a web page. A tag starts
with <anyelement> and ends
with </anyelement>. And very
first tag of HTML that is used in a web page or also called file is <HTML>. HTML tag starts with <HTML> and ends with </HTML> at the end of the file. All
the web page code is written within this tag. Like:-
Like I said earlier all the code of a webpage goes into these
<html>”Type anything here”</html> tags. Type and save it
and open the file with any web browser( OR you can use Preview or world icon in
Dreamweaver. Lets test our first webpage:-
Output in the browser:
So we have learned basic tag and how to start HTML coding. we will see in your next tutorial how you will add other tags in the document and what will those tags do.
