...HTML Beginner's Guide htmldog.com This HTML Beginner's Guide assumes that you have no previous knowledge of HTML or CSS. It should be quite easy to follow if you work through each step, which are all brought together at the end, before moving on to the CSS Beginner's Guide. The thing to keep in mind is that HTML and CSS are all about separating the content (HTML) and the presentation (CSS). HTML is nothing more than fancy structured content and the formatting of that content will come later when we tackle CSS. If you have looked at other HTML tutorials, you may find that they mention certain things that HTML Dog does not. This is because many methods are obsolete, non-standard or just plain bad practice. Getting into the frame of mind of doing things the RIGHT way from the start will turn in to much better results in the end. Getting Started Most of the stuff on the web is no different than the stuff on your computer it's just a whole load of files sorted into a whole load of directories. HTML files are nothing more than simple text files, so to start writing in HTML, you need nothing more than a simple text editor. Notepad is a common example (on Windows this is usually found under the Programs > Accessories menu). Type this in to your text editor: This is my first web page Now create a folder called 'html' and save the file as 'myfirstpage.html' (it is important that the extension '.html' be specified - some text editors, such as Notepad, will automatically save it as...

...Advantages: * HTML is a free Language conceived by user for users * A HTML page could be read by any brand computers and provide the same result * Its distributed structure permits to exchange an element without change anything on the page where it is. This same element can be used many times without having to re designed it many times. * Network link: We can integrate local elements into a personal web page or to remote surfers and elements which we integrates address (URL). * Hypertext permits to manage different information without have to store them locally Advantages Easy to use Loose syntax (although, being too flexible will not comply with standards) Supported on almost every browser, if not all browsers. Widely used; established on almost every website, if not all websites. Very similar to XML syntax, which is increasingly used for data storage Free - You need not buy any software Easy to learn & code even for novice programmers Disadvantages * It cannot produce dynamic output alone, since it is a static language * Sometimes, the structuring of HTML documents is hard to grasp * You have to keep up with deprecated tags, and make sure not to use them * Deprecated tags appear because another language that works with HTML has replaced the original work of the tag; thus the other language needs to be learned (most of the time, it is CSS) * Security features offered by HTML are limited Disadvantages: ...

...Web and HTML What is the World Wide Web? The World Wide Web (WWW) is most often called the Web. The Web is a network of computers all over the world. All the computers in the Web can communicate with each other. All the computers use a communication standard called HTTP. Web information is stored in documents called Web pages. Web pages are files stored on computers called Web servers. Computers reading the Web pages are called Web clients. Web clients view the pages with a program called a Web browser. Popular browsers are Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator. How does the WWW work? How does the browser fetch the pages? A browser fetches a Web page from a server by a request. A request is a standard HTTP request containing a page address. A page address looks like this: http://www.someone.com/page.htm. How does the browser display the pages? All Web pages contain instructions for display The browser displays the page by reading these instructions. The most common display instructions are called HTML tags. HTML tags look like this

...How To Create Your First Web Page This HTML Tutorial is about how to create your first Web page by coding HTML using a text editor (such as NotePad) and then viewing the document using your Web browser.To begin a Web page you will open a simple text editor like Windows NotePad for the Windows operating system or SimpleText for the Macintosh. Once you have this simple text editor open to a new blank document you will begin your web document by typing a few items I shall discuss in a moment. When you reach the closing part of this file I will ask you to save it to a floppy disk with a filename of firstpage.html. This is discussed below, in the section titled Saving the File. The method of opening the file using your Web browser is discussed in the section titled Open and View the File. Let's begin. The first thing you are to type in the text editor work area is a left angle bracket, < the letters HTML, and the right angle bracket, >. The symbols and letters should look like this: <HTML><HTML> is the opening for any HTML Web Page. HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. By having coded the <HTML> the browser will know which language it is to handle. What is HTML? is an article containing additional information about HTML. A lot of information of your own preference is placed into a coded document. The term document refers to what is being coded and typed in the text editor.

...HTML Frames • Frames allow you to have multiple sections of the browser window, called frames, each showing their own .html file within the frame. • HTML Frames can be used to split a web page so you can load multiple HTML files or pages into one web page. This will cause the web browser to display multiple pages at one time. Frame sets are rarely used these days, as the introduction of server side scripting languages such as php and asp allow you to create content pages dynamically. The introduction of HTML5 has also provided new methods of doing page layouts without having to use frames. Frame Set - ... • the frameset tag defines a group of frames. Setting the rows and cols attribute allow you to create the number of frames needed for your layout. • rows="??,??" - To set up multiple frames in rows, replace the question marks by the size of each row, either in pixels or as a percentage. A * can be used as a wild card, for instance: rows="100,*" would give you a top frame of 100 pixels high, and a bottom frame using the rest of the screen. cols="??,??" - Similar to rows, a number of frames can be set out in columns. border="?" - Frame border thickness in pixels. bordercolor="?" - Colour of border between frames. (*) • • • Frame - Each frame within a set will need a frame tag to tell it which web page to load in the frame. It uses the attribute: • src="url" - Filename or URL of page to show in the frame • noresize="noresize"...

...HTML FORMS Introduction For a website to be successful, it is important to be able to get feedback from visitors to your site. This could be a request for information, general comments on your site or even a product order. This could be done with a MAILTO: link but providing a form has several advantages over a simple email. .. It makes it easier for people to send the information .. A form gives you greater control over the information that is sent. .. Form results can be organised in a way that makes them easy to store in a spreadsheet or database. These fields can be added to your forms: Text field Password field Hidden field Text area Check box Radio button Drop-down menu Submit button Reset button Image button Form Handlers When a form is filled in by a visitor to your site and sent, the results of the form need to be processed in some way. One of the most common ways to process form results is with a CGI (Common Gateway Interface) script. This is a small program that the information entered in to the form is sent to as soon as the form is submitted. The purpose of this script is to accept the results of a form, organise the results and send the results to an appropriate location, such as a text file, database or email address. In these exercises we won’t go into creating CGI scripts since that is quite different from HTML and requires some programming knowledge. There are many free CGI scripts on the Internet that you can download...

The HTML element follows and contains the HEAD and BODY. The HEAD contains information about the document, such as its title and keywords, while the BODY contains the actual content of the document, made up of block-level elements and inline elements.

Prepared By: Abdul Aziz ID: 2012-2-10-249 Course: CSE101 Section: 11 Submission Date: March 29, 2016. East West University Definition of HTML HTML – HyperText Markup Language. Short for HyperText Markup Language, the authoring language used to create documents on the World Wide Web. HTML is similar to SGML, although it is not a strict subset. HTML defines the structure and layout of a Web document by using a variety of tags and attributes. Along with CSS, and JavaScript, HTML is a cornerstone technology used to create web pages, as well as to create user interfaces for mobile and web applications. Web browsers can read HTML files and render them into visible or audible web pages. HTML describes the structure of a website semantically and, before the advent of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), included cues for the presentation or appearance of the document (web page), making it a markup language, rather than a programming language. HTML defines the structure and layout of a Web document by using a variety of tags and attributes. The correct structure for an HTML document starts with (enter here what document is about) and ends with . All the information you'd like to include in your Web page fits in between the and tags.
