Study Notes
HTML Overview
- HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language, designed for documents with hypertext links.
- Provides the basic structure for web pages, including elements like headings, paragraphs, emphasized text, and links.
- Supports the incorporation of multimedia elements such as videos, images, and interactive components like forms and widgets.
Document Structure
- An HTML document is marked up using special tags, indicated by angle brackets (< >).
- Marking up the document involves adding descriptive tags to enhance content organization and presentation.
Case Sensitivity
- HTML is not case-sensitive; tags can be written in either uppercase or lowercase, e.g.,
<HTML>and<html>are equivalent.
File Naming Conventions
- HTML files should follow proper suffix conventions, ending with ".html" (e.g., contact.html).
- Filenames must not contain spaces; use underscores (_) or hyphens (-) to separate words.
- Avoid special characters (.@#$%^&*:;,’) in filenames to ensure compatibility.
- Filenames may be case-sensitive depending on the server used.
HTML Tags
- HTML tags consist of an opening tag, content, and a closing tag (e.g.,
<h1>Hello World</h1>). - Tags help define the structure and format of the web page content.
