    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.
