                 Computers connected to the network (Internet) are either servers or clients and communicate
                 with each other through networking protocol. The clients send requests to the servers and the
                 servers respond immediately with the required data.
                 The server stores the files and information in the form of websites. A website is a collection of web
                 pages. A web page is a document that contains text, graphics, videos, audios and links to other
                 pages. Every web page of a website has a unique address called Uniform Resource Locator (URL).
                 We can use this URL to access any web page from anywhere in the world. Have you ever wondered
                 how these web pages are created? HTML is the most widely used language to design web pages.

                    INTRODUCING 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 the same on any type of computer and on any
                 operating system, i.e., Mac, Windows, etc.

                         Tech Tweak

                  HTML  language  was  redesigned  by  Tim  Berner  Lee  in  1989.  It  is  a  subset  of  Standard
                  Generalized Markup Language (SGML).


                 Key Features of HTML

                 Some of the important features of HTML are:
                    It is a platform-independent language.
                    It is not a case-sensitive language.
