Web Development Fundamentals
- Web development focuses on separating content, presentation, and behavior.
- HTML5 manages content.
- CSS3 handles presentation.
- JavaScript controls functionality.
HTML Structure
- HTML documents have three primary sections:
- Doctype declaration: identifies the document type (e.g., HTML).
- Head section: provides metadata about the document (e.g., title, character set).
- Body section: holds the main content of the page.
- HTML uses tags (elements): usually in pairs (opening and closing).
- Examples of tags:
<html>: encloses the entire document.<head>: contains meta-information.<body>: holds the main content.<img>: for images.<p>: for paragraphs.
- Tags can be nested.
<br>is a single-use (empty) tag that creates a line break.- Tags can have attributes, e.g.,
widthandheightfor images.
File Structure
- Create a folder structure for work (Week1, Ex1, img, script, styles).
/index.htmlusually serves as the home or landing page.
Addressing
- Absolute addressing: uses the full path for the file (e.g.,
J:/Employment/Administrator/Network.htm). - Relative addressing: uses paths relative to the current location (e.g., from a file in the
Templates.htmdirectory, you might use../Administrator/Network.htm).
Lists (unordered/ordered/description)
- Unordered list (
<ul>) use bullet points. - Ordered list (
<ol>) uses numbers. - Description list (
<dl>) links terms to their descriptions - List items (
<li>) are inside list containers (ul,ol,dl). description term/descriptionare part of the description list
Additional Tags
<div>: is a broadly used tag for content separation.- Hyperlinks (
<a>tag): used to link two documents together or to create a clickable element referencing a different point in the same document
File Management and Embedding
- File management using tools like Notepad++.
- Embedding content (e.g., images) within documents using the
<img>tag. altattribute is recommended with images for accessibility.
