HTML
|
HTML is an abbreviation for HyperText Markup Language and is used to structure your web page.
|
|
|
CSS
|
CSS is an abbreviation for Cascading Style Sheets.
CSS gives you a way to tell the browser how elements in your page should look. CSS is used to control the presentation of your HTML. |
|
|
Tags in HTML - Purpose
|
Tags are just words or characters in angle brackets,
like <head>, <p>, <h1>, and so on. The tags tell the browser about the structure and meaning of your text. |
|
|
<h2> and </h2> as example of providing structure to browser
|
The <h2> and </h2> tags
go around a subheading. Think of an <h2> heading as a subheading of an <h1> heading. |
|
|
<html> and </html>
|
First, surround your
HTML with <html> & </html> tags. This tells the browser the content of the file is HTML. |
|
|
<head> and </head>
|
Next add <head> and </head> tags. The
head contains information about your Web page, like its title. For now, think about it this way: the head allows you to tell the browser things about the Web page. Go ahead and put a title inside the head. The title usually appears at the top of the browser window. The head consists of the <head> & </head> tags and everything in between. |
|
|
<body> and </body>
|
The body contains all the content and
structure of your Web page – the parts of the Web page that you see in your browser. The body consists of the <body> & </body> tags and everything in between. |
|
|
What's an element?
|
Element = Opening Tag + Content + Closing Tag
|
|
|
Do matching tags have to be on the same line?
|
No; remember the browser doesn’t really care about tabs, returns, and most spaces. So, your tags can start and end
anywhere on the same line or they can start and end on different lines. Just make sure you start with an opening tag, like <h2>, and end with a closing tag, like </h2>. |
|
|
Adding style
|
To add style, you add a new (say it with us) E-L-E-M-E-N-T
to your page – the <style> element. The <style> element is placed inside the head of your HTML. the <style> tag also requires an attribute, called type, which tells the browser the kind of style you’re using. Because you’re going to use CSS, you need to specify the “text/css” type. |
|
|
An element can have an “attribute?”
|
Attributes give you a way to provide additional information
about an element. Like, if you have a style element, the attribute allows you to say exactly what kind of style you’re talking about. You’ll be seeing a lot more attributes for various elements; just remember they give you some extra info about the element. |
