Study Notes
HTML Fundamentals
- HTML tags are defined with an opening
<tag>and a closing</tag>format. - Tags encompass the content they structure, which typically includes a start tag, content, and an end tag.
- HTML attributes modify element behavior and provide extra information, formatted as
name="value".
Nested HTML Elements
- HTML elements can contain other elements, creating a nested structure.
- All HTML documents feature a hierarchy of nested elements.
HTML Images
- Images enhance web page design; they are linked rather than inserted.
- The
<img>tag is used to embed images, requiring attributes likesrcfor specifying image location. - The
<img>tag is self-closing and contains attributes only, without a closing tag.
Description Lists
- Description lists use the
<dl>tag to provide terms and their descriptions. - Terms are defined with the
<dt>tag, while descriptions follow with the<dd>tag.
CSS Basics
- CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) defines website appearance, separating design from content structure maintained by HTML.
- CSS allows for shared characteristics across multiple elements without relying solely on ID selectors.
CSS Selectors
- Class selectors are marked with a dot (.) and can be used for multiple elements.
- ID selectors are unique to a single element and begin with a hash (#).
- CSS specificity determines which rules apply when multiple selectors target the same element.
Specificity and Chaining in CSS
- Strong rules in CSS score points based on their specificity, focusing on the particular elements targeted.
- Chaining allows targeting of elements with multiple classes, enhancing precision for applying styles based on various conditions.
- Each paragraph or element can inherit styles based on the combined presence of classes or IDs, allowing tailored styles.
Exercises and Outcomes
- Students will engage in practical exercises to reinforce understanding of HTML elements, CSS usage, and selector specificity.
- Module goals include mastering HTML image embedding, hyperlinking, list creation, and internal CSS management.
