HTML (Hyper text Markup Language)

  1. What is HTML used for?

HTML (Hyper text Markup Language) is code (markup language that defines the structure) used to create a web page and its content, consisting of a series of elements used to enclose (or wrap) different parts of the content to make it appear a certain way, or act a certain way (i.e. content structured in set of paragraphs, list of bulleted points, images, data tables, etc.).

  1. Why are we learning HTML?

A working knowledge of HTML is useful not only for web developers but also for marketing specialists, designers and content creators, because these jobs frequently require you to optimise landing pages and web pages. Exposing your brain to new information helps you more quickly and easily connect the dots when you actually get to practically write code.

  1. What is an HTML tag?

Viewed as opening tag and closing tag, with content between, enclosing tags can make a word or image hyperlink to somewhere else, can italicize words, can make the font bigger or smaller, etc.

  1. What is the structure of an HTML tag?

The opening tag, the closing tag and the content together comprise the element.

  1. What is an attribute?

Attributes (located inside the element) contain extra information about the element that you don’t want to appear in the actual content, such as allowing you to give the element a non-unique identifier that can be used to target it with style information, etc.

  1. What is the anatomy of an HTML document?

— the doctype, once meant to act as links to a set of rules that the HTML page had to follow to be considered good HTML, which could mean automatic error checking and other useful things. These days, they are basically just needed to make sure your document behaves correctly.

— the html element, wraps all the content on the entire page, sometimes known as the root element.

— the head element, acts as a container for all you want to include on the HTML page that is not content shown to page viewers. This includes keywords and page description to appear in search results, CSS (to style content), character set declarations, etc.

– meta charset=“utf-8” — This element sets the character set your document should use to UTF-8, which includes most characters from the vast majority of written languages.

— the title element sets the title of the page, and is the title that appears in the browser tab the page is loaded in, also used to describe the page when you bookmark/favourite it.

— the body element contains all the content shown to web users when they visit the page, (i.e text, images, videos, games, playable audio tracks, etc.)

What is HTML?
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), is not a programming language, but a markup language, giving structure to content.

What is HTML used for?
It defines the structure of a web page and its contents. Examples include paragraphs, bulleted points , placing images and displaying tables. It uses elements to make different parts of the content appear or act is a defined way, such as making it bold, italic or adding a hyperlink.

Why are we learning HTML?
It’s very handy to understand HTML as it has many benefits and applications in different roles. Its a good foundation to start learning from, simple to understand and builds knowledge and skills that can then be applied to programming languages.

What is an HTML tag?
HTML has the concept of an Element, this consists of Tags and Content. The tag is what you use to wrap/encase your content to make it appear or act in a certain way, eg text to appear bold.

What is the structure of an HTML tag?
Tags contain the name of the element, wrapped in open and closing angle brackets < >.
We will use the element p, which refers to paragraph.
The opening tag, shows where the element starts (so where the paragraph begins)


The closing tag, shows where the element stops (so where the paragraph ends) and has a forward slash before the element name </p>
Between the tags, we have the content, that will be affected.

What is an attribute?
An Element at minimum comprises of opening tag, content and closing tag but they can also have attributes, additional information about the element that you don’t want to show in the content.
They will have a name and a value that will be separated by an equal sign.
The value should always be wrapped in quotation marks.
There should always be a space between the element name and the first and subsequent attribute names (if more than one attribute).
Example: <p class="note" group="one-liner">That's the way the dice rolls!</p>

An empty element can still have attributes, but has no closing tag, example is <img> used to place an image on a web page.

What is the anatomy of an HTML document?
Individual elements are combined to form an entire HTML page. They are nested elements. To get a complete page you need the following: doctype, root/html element, head element, meta, title, body.

doctype - legacy requirement but makes sure the document behaves correctly.

root/html - this element wraps the entire page.

head - this element acts as a container for stuff you want to include on the HTML page but is not the content you are showing to the viewers. It may include the CSS style sheet, character set or keywords and page description.

meta - sets the character set to be used, by setting it can avoid problems later.

title - sets the title which appears in the browser tab when the page is loaded - it is the description used by default for a bookmark/favourite.

body - this contains all the content that you want to display to the viewers.

HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. HTML is a markup language, not a programming language and is more concerned with the structure of content rather than what that content does or how it looks.

Most decentralized applications will need a webpage. HTML is the backbone of every webpage on the internet.

HTML tags are keywords that define how a web browser will format and display content.
HTML tags are composed of four things:

  1. The name of the element.
  2. Angle brackets
  3. Forward slash in the closing tag.
  4. Attributes.

Attributes are extra information about the element embedded in the opening tag.

The HTML element

  • The head element–comprises all of the things that will not be shown a the webpage (i.e., character set declarations, CSS, keywords, title, etc.).

  • The body element–comprises all of the things that will be shown a the webpage (i.e., text, images, links, tables, audio, video, etc.).
