Computers connected to the network (Internet) are either servers or clients and communicate with
each other through web pages. In the previous class, you have learned the basics of HTML5. Let's recall
HTML5 and learn more about it.
HTML
HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. It is a markup language that describes the structure
of the web page. It allows us to create web pages that contain paragraphs, headings, links and block
quotes. The output of HTML web pages is same on any type of computer and on any operating system,
i.e., Mac, Windows, etc.
HTML TAGS AND ATTRIBUTES
In the previous class, you have learned various tags such <HTML>, <HEAD>, <TITLE> and <BODY>. You
have also learned attributes of these tags. Let us revise some of those tags and learn about more tags
of HTML.
Tags Description
The <HTML> tag tells the web browser that the text contained between <HTML> and
<HTML>
</HTML> is a web page and can be viewed using a web browser.
The <HEAD> tag represents the header area of the document. It contains information
<HEAD>
about the document title, scripts and style definitions used in the document.
The <TITLE> tag represents the title of the document and is used inside the <HEAD>
<TITLE> tag. It appears on the title bar of the browser window. If you do not want to give title
to your web page, you can skip it.
The <BODY> tag defines that section of the HTML document which is visible on the
<BODY web browser. It contains all other tags that define the content presentation elements
such as images, lists, tables, text and links to move between the webpages.
HTML5 provides different types of tags. For example, tag to create different types of headings, to
create a paragraph, to insert a line break, to add a horizontal line, etc. Let us learn about some of
them in detail.
