Study Notes
HTML Overview
- HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language and is crucial for creating web pages.
- It is an accessible programming language, ideal for beginners and young learners.
- No fixed number of HTML tags exists, typically ranging from 80 to 150 depending on the web development program used.
HTML Structure
- HTML is case-insensitive, allowing tags in uppercase or lowercase.
- Tags are keywords encased in angle brackets, such as
<tagname>. - Most HTML tags exist in pairs: a start tag (e.g.,
<tagname>) and an end tag (e.g.,</tagname>).
The Body Section
- The
<body>section contains most visible content of a web page. - Properties like
BGCOLOR(background color) andTEXT(text color) define the page's appearance. - Default browser settings typically show a white background and black text.
Headings and Paragraphs
- There are six sizes for heading tags, with
<h1>as the largest and<h6>as the smallest. - The
<p>tag defines paragraphs, automatically adding space above and below the text.
Formatting Tags
- Formatting tags alter text appearance on web pages:
-
<b>for bold text -
<i>for italics -
<u>for underlined text -
<tt>for typewriter-style font -
<s>for strikethrough text
-
- Additional formatting tags:
-
<strong>for important text -
<em>for emphasized text -
<sub>for subscript -
<sup>for superscript
-
Horizontal Rule and Line Breaks

<hr>tag creates a horizontal line across the page, acting as a section divider. - The
<br>tag inserts a line break without extra spacing, suitable for formatting addresses or poetry.

<font>tag adjusts text size and color:- SIZE attribute ranges from 1 to 7 for height.

<img>tag is used for embedding images with two key attributes:-
