Introduction
 Stands for Hyper Text Markup Language
 Computer language used to create web pages
 HTML file = text file containing markup tags such
<p>
 Tags tell Web browser how to display a page
 Can have either *.htm or *.html file extension

Choosing Text Editor
 There are many different programs that you can use to
create web documents.
 HTML Editors enable users to create documents quickly
and easily by pushing a few buttons. Instead of entering all
of the HTML codes by hand.
 These programs will generate the HTML Source Code for
you.
 For this Course, we will focus on using the standard
Microsoft Windows text editors, Notepad.

HTML Page Creation/Editing
 Open Notepad or another text editor.
 At the top of the page type <html>.
 On the next line, indent five spaces and now add
the opening header tag: <head>.
 On the next line, indent ten spaces and type
<title> </title>.
 Go to the next line, indent five spaces from the
margin and insert the closing header tag:
</head>.

HTML Page Creation/Editing
 Five spaces in from the margin on the next line,
type<body>.
 Now drop down another line and type the closing
tag right below its mate: </body>.
 Finally, go to the next line and type </html>.
 In the File menu, choose Save As.
 In the Save as Type option box, choose All Files.
 Name the file template.htm.
 Click Save.

Creating a basic HTML doc
<html>
<head>
<title>This is document title</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is a heading</h1>
<p>Document description goes here </p>
</body>
</html>

Page Components
 < DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN
"http: //www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-
transitional.dtd >
 First line of code
 Declaration of version of HTML
 <html>…</html>
 Container for the document
 <head>…</head>
 <title> Title of page </title>
 <body>…</body>
 Content of page

Page Components (Contd.)
 The HEAD of your document point to above
window part. The TITLE of your document appears
in the very top line of the user’s browser. If the
user chooses to “Bookmark” your page or save as
a “Favorite”; it is the TITLE that is added to the list.
 The text in your TITLE should be as descriptive as
possible because this is what many search
engines, on the internet, use for indexing your site.

 Tags are the elements that create the components
of a page
 Tags surrounded by angle brackets < >
 Usually come in pairs
• Example: Start tag <p> and end tag </p>
 Stuff between is called “element content”
 Tags are not case sensitive
• New standard is to use lower case
HTML Elements

HTML Basic Tags
The basic structure for all HTML documents is simple
and should include the following minimum elements
or tags:
 <html> - The main container for HTML pages
 <head> - The container for page header
information
 <title> - The title of the page
 <body> - The main body of the page

The <html> Element
 The <html> element is the containing element for the
whole HTML document. Each HTML document should
have one <html> and each document should end with
a closing </html> tag.
 Following two elements appear as direct children of an
<html> element:
1. <head>
2. <body>
 As such, start and end HTML tags enclose all the other
HTML tags you use to describe the Web page.

The <head> Element
 The <head> element is just a container for all
other header elements. It should be the first thing
to appear after the opening <html> tag.
Example:
<head>
<title>HTML Basic tags</title>
</head>

The <title> Element
 You should specify a title for every page that you write
inside the <title> element. This element is a child of the
<head> element). It is used in several ways:
 It displays at the very top of a browser window.
 It is used as the default name for a bookmark in browsers
such as IE and Netscape.
 Its is used by search engines that use its content to help
index pages.
 Therefore it is important to use a title that really describes
the content of your site. The <title> element should contain
only the text for the title and it may not contain any other
elements.

The <body> Element
 The <body> element appears after the <head>
element and contains the part of the Web page that
you actually see in the main browser window, which is
sometimes referred to as body content.
 A <body> element may contain anything from a couple
of paragraphs under a heading to more complicated
layouts containing forms and tables.
 Most of what you will be learning in this and the
following five chapters will be written between the
opening <body> tag and closing </body> tag.

The <meta> Element
 HTML lets you specify metadata - information about a document
rather than document content -in a variety of ways. The META
element can be used to include name/value pairs describing
properties of the HTML document, such as author, Expiry Date, a
list of key words, author etc.
 The <meta> tag is an empty element and so does not have a closing
tag, rather, <meta> tags carry information within attributes, so you
need a forward slash character at the end of the element.
 Metadata provided by using meta tag is a very important part of
the web. It can assist search engines in finding the best match
when a user performs a search. Search engines will often look at
any metadata attached to a page - especially keywords - and rank it
higher than another page with less relevant metadata, or with no
metadata at all

Attribute Description
Name Name for the property. Can
be anything. Examples
include, keywords,
description, author, revised,
generator etc.
content Specifies the property's
value.
http-equiv http-equiv can be used to
refresh the page or to set a
cookie. Values include
content-type, expires,
refresh and set-cookie.

The <meta> Element
 Specifying Keywords
 Document Description
 Document Revision date
 Setting Cookies
 Setting Author Name

The HTML Attributes
 Attributes are another important part of HTML markup. An
attribute is used to define the characteristics of an element
and is placed inside the element's opening tag. All attributes
are made up of two parts: a name and a value:
 The name is the property you want to set. For example, the
<font> element in the example carries an attribute whose
name is face, which you can use to indicate which typeface
you want the text to appear in.
 The value is what you want the value of the property to be.
The first example was supposed to use the Arial typeface, so
the value of the face attribute is Arial.

The HTML Attributes
 The value of the attribute should be put in double quotation
marks, and is separated from the name by the equals sign.
You can see that a color for the text has been specified as
well as the typeface in this <font> element:
<font face="arial" color="#CC0000">

Core Attributes
The four core attributes that can be
used on the majority of HTML elements
(although not all) are:
id title class style

The id Attribute
 The id attribute can be used to uniquely identify any
element within a page ( or style sheet ).
 If an element carries an id attribute as a unique identifier it
is possible to identify just that element and its content.
 If you have two elements of the same name within a Web
page (or style sheet), you can use the id attribute to
distinguish between elements that have the same name.
Example :
<p id="html">This para explains what is HTML</p>
<p id="css">This para explains what is Casecading Style
Sheet</p>

The title Attribute
 The title attribute gives a suggested title for the
element. They syntax for the title attribute is similar as
explained for id attribute:
 The behaviour of this attribute will depend upon the
element that carries it, although it is often displayed as
a tooltip or while the element is loading.
For example: <h4 title="Hello HTML!">Titled Heading
Tag Example</h4>

<class> and <style>
Attributes
 The class attribute is used to associate an element with
a style sheet, and specifies the class of element. The
class attribute is used to associate an element with a
style sheet, and specifies the class of element.
Example:
class="className1 className2 className3"
 The style attribute allows you to specify CSS rules
within the element.
Example: <p style="font-family:arial; color:#FF0000;”
>Some text...</p>

Attributes Options Functions

within an HTML
element.
bgcolor numeric,
hexidecimal, RGB
values

elements.
width Numeric Value Specifies the width of
tables, images, or table
cells.
height Numeric value Specifies the height of
tables, images, or table
cells.
Background URL Places an background
image behind an element

Creating heading - <hx>
Any documents starts with a heading. You use different sizes for your
headings. HTML also have six levels of headings, which use the
elements <h1>, <h2>, <h3>, <h4>, <h5>, and <h6>. While displaying
any heading, browser adds one line before and after that heading.
Example:
<h1>This is heading 1</h1>

Creating Paragraph - <p>
The <p> element offers a way to structure your text.
Each paragraph of text should go in between an
opening <p> and closing </p> tag as shown below in
the example: <p>Here is a paragraph of text.</p>
<p>Here is a second paragraph of text.</p>
<p align="left">This is left aligned.</p>
<p align="center">This is center aligned.</p>

Create Line Breaks <br />
Whenever you use the <br /> element, anything
following it starts on the next line. This tag is an example
of an empty element, where you do not need opening
and closing tags, as there is nothing to go in between
them.
Example:
Hello<br />
This is all about HTML<br />
Thanks<br />

The <center> Element
You can use <center> tag to put any content in the
center of the page or any table cell.
Example:
<p>This is not in the center.</p>
<center>
<p>This is in the center.</p>
</center>

Preserve Formatting
The <pre> Element
 Sometimes you want your text to follow the exact format of
how it is written in the HTML document. In those cases, you can
use the preformatted tag (<pre>).
 Any text between the opening <pre> tag and the closing </pre>
tag will preserve the formatting of the source document.
Example:
<pre>
This is an example of preserve formatting tags.
Wherever I will write it will
display as it is.
</pre>

Horizontal Rules - <hr />
Horizontal rules are used to visually break up sections of
a document. The <hr> tag creates a line from the current
position in the document to the right margin and breaks
the line accordingly.
Example:
<p>This is paragraph one and should be on top</p>
<hr />
<p>This is paragraph two and should be at bottom</p>

 Bold Text - The <b> Element:
<p>The following word uses a <b>
bold</b> typeface.</p>
 Italic Text - The <i> Element:
<p>The following word uses a
<i>italicized</i> typeface.</p>
 Underlined Text - The <u> Element:
<p>The following word uses a
<u>underlined</u> typeface.</p>

 Superscript Text - The <sup> Element:
<p>The following word uses a <sup>
superscript</sup> typeface.</p>
 Subscript Text - The <sub> Element:
<p>The following word uses a <sub>
subscript</sub> typeface.</p>
 Larger Text - The <big> Element:
<p>The following word uses a <big>big</big>
typeface.</p>
 Smaller Text - The <small> Element:
<p>The following word uses a <small>
small</small> typeface.</p>

 Emphasized Text - The <em> Element
<p>You <em>must</em> remember to close elements in
XHTML.</p>
 Strong Text - The <strong> Element:
<p>You <strong>must</strong> remember to close elements in
XHTML.</p>
 Text Abbreviation - The <abbr> Element:
<p>I have a friend called <abbr title="Abhishek">Abhy</abbr>.</p>
 Using Acronym - The <acronym> Element
<p>This chapter covers marking up text in <acronym
title="Extensible Hypertext Markup
Language">XHTML</acronym>.</p>

 Citations - The <cite> Element
<p>This HTML Tutorial is derived from <cite>World Wide Web Standard
for HTML</cite>.</p>
 Computer Code - The <code> Element :
<h1> <code>This is inside code element</code></h1 >
 Keyboard Text - The <kbd> Element :
<h1> <kbd>This is inside kbd element</kbd></h1>
 Program Output - The <samp> Element :
<p>Result produced by the program is <samp>Hello
World</samp></p>
 Addresses - The <address> Element :
<address>304, Menna Colony, Hyderabad -
INDIA, 500032</address>

Comparison
Block-level elements
 Block-level elements appear
on the screen as if they have a
carriage return or line break
before and after them
 <p>, <h1>, <h2>, <h3>, <h4>, <
h5>, <h6>, <ul>, <ol>, <dl>, <pr
e>, <hr />, <blockquote>, and
<address>
Inline elements
 Inline elements can appear
within sentences and do not
have to appear on a new line
of their own .
 <b>, <i>, <u>, <em>, <strong>,
<sup>, <sub>, <big>, <small>, <
li>, <code>, <cite>,

 Comments are the piece of code which is ignored by
any web browser. It is good practice to comment your
code, especially in complex documents, to indicate
sections of a document, and any other notes to anyone
looking at the code.
 Comments help you and others understand your code.
 HTML Comment lines are indicated by the special
beginning tag  placed at the
beginning and end of EVERY line to be treated as a
comment.

 Given line is a valid comment in HTML

 But following line is not a valid comment and will be
displayed by the browser. This is because there is a space
between the left angle bracket and the exclamation
mark.
< !-- This is commented out -->

Using Comment tag
There are few browsers who supports <comment>
tag to comment a part of code.
Example:
<p>This is <comment>not</comment> Internet
Explorer.</p>
