| How to design a cool website? Some basic tips. |
We earlier in this introduction had said 'Once you have these files ready....'. . In this section we will discuss how to generate these files. A small introduction to HTML and other related issues.
What is HTML? - HTML ( Hyper Text Markup Language), is a text file which has some tags apart from the text which you can see on a web page. These Mark up tags tell the web browser, how these text has to displayed and how the page should look to the browser.These text files has to be stored as either .htm or .html files using a text editor like notepad. A simple HTML file will look like this<html> <head> <title>Title</title> </head> <body> Text for display on browser </body> </html> |
| Now save this file as index.htm . Now if you open this file in a web browser such as internet explorer, you should see 'Text for display on browser.' . The tags should be contained with in < and >. If < is folled by / then it is the closing tag. Thus <html> at the start of the file says the browser that it is starting point of the HTML document and </html> at the end says HTML document is complete. The information between HEAD tags is called header information. The info between BODY tags is displayed in the browser to the user. visit W3Schools this page for a detailed lesson on HTML. | Also visit this page for more info |
