Study Notes
Introduction to HTML
- HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language.
- It's the standard markup language for creating web pages.
- HTML uses tags to define the structure and content of a web page.
- Tags are enclosed in angle brackets
< >
. - Tags typically come in pairs, with a start tag and an end tag. The end tag usually includes a forward slash (e.g.,
</p>
). - The content between the start and end tags defines the element.
- HTML documents are typically saved with a
.html
or.htm
extension.
Basic HTML Structure
- Every HTML document has a basic structure.
- The
<!DOCTYPE html>
declaration defines the document type as HTML5. - The
<html>
tag encapsulates the entire HTML document. - The
<head>
section contains metadata about the page, such as the title. - The
<title>
tag specifies the title that appears in the browser's title bar. - The
<body>
section contains the visible content of the page.
Common HTML Elements
- Headings:
<h1>
to<h6>
for different levels of headings. - Paragraphs:
<p>
for blocks of text. - Lists:
<ul>
for unordered lists,<ol>
for ordered lists,<li>
for list items. - Images:
<img>
for displaying images, specifying the source using thesrc
attribute. - Links:
<a>
for hyperlinks, using thehref
attribute to specify the destination URL. - Tables:
<table>
,<tr>
(table row),<td>
(table data) for tabular data. - Forms:
<form>
for user input,<input>
for various input types (text boxes, checkboxes, radio buttons). - Divs and Spans:
<div>
for general block-level containers,<span>
for inline containers. - Comments:
<!-- This is a comment -->
for developer notes, not displayed in the page.
Attributes
- Attributes provide additional information about HTML elements.
- They are placed within the start tag.
- Common attributes include:
id
: A unique identifier for an element.class
: A way to group elements with similar characteristics.src
: Specifies the source of an image.href
: Specifies the URL for a hyperlink.alt
: Provides alternative text for images (important for accessibility).style
: Allows inline styling for elements.title
: Provides a tooltip to display when hovering over an element.
HTML Semantics
- HTML5 introduced semantic elements, which describe the purpose of the content.
- Examples include
<header>
,<nav>
,<article>
,<aside>
,<footer>
. - These elements improve structure and accessibility.
HTML Entities
- HTML uses character entities to represent special characters that can't be typed directly (e.g.,
<
,>
). - Examples include
<
for<
,>
for>
,
for a non-breaking space.
HTML5 Features
- HTML5 introduced features like audio and video tagging directly in the document.
- It has new semantic elements.
- It is more flexible and robust for modern development.
Basic HTML Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My First Web Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to my page</h1>
<p>This is a paragraph of text.</p>
<img src="image.jpg" alt="Example Image">
<a href="https://www.example.com">Visit Example</a>
</body>
</html>
