HTML Introduction Creating a Web Page
2
HTML: The Language of the Web
Web pages are text files, written in a language called Hypertext Markup Language or HTML. A markup language is a language used to describe the contact and format of documents. HTML was developed from the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML), a language used for large-scale documents. SGML proved to be cumbersome and difficult, thus HTML was created.

Tools for Creating HTML Documents
HTML documents are text files, which a text editor such as Windows NotePad can be used to create. You can also use an HTML converter or an HTML editor. an HTML converter like Microsoft Word takes text in one format and converts it to HTML code an HTML editor helps you create an HTML file by inserting HTML codes for you as you work

5
HTML Syntax Document content is what the users sees on the page, such as headings and images. Tags are the HTML codes that control the appearance of the document content. tag is the name of the HTML tag attributes are properties of the tag document content is actual content that appears in the Web page
6
HTML Tags Tags can be one-sided or two-sided.
two-sided tags contain an opening tag <b> that tells the browser to turn on a feature and apply it to the contact that follows, and a closing tag </b> that turns off the feature one-sided tags are used to insert noncharacter data into the Web page, such as a graphic image or video clip <tag attribute> Tags are not case sensitive. The current standard is to display all tags in lowercase letters.

Example: <h1>Mr. Dube’s Chemistry Classes</h1>
HTML Tag Format 1. Tags can always be identified by the Brackets < > that enclose the tag name 2. Opening Tag < > tells the browser to turn on the feature Tag Name – macro-like feature Properties – additional information placed within brackets that control how the tag is used 3. Closing Tag </ > tells the browser to turn off the feature <Tag Name Properties> Document Content </Tag Name> Example: <h1>Mr. Dube’s Chemistry Classes</h1>

Initial HTML Tags <html> <head>
<title> Web Page Name </title> </head> <body> Document Content </body> </html>

Saving and Displaying Web Page
Start Notepad Create Initial Tags After the <body> tag add: Your Name Your Major “This is my first web page that I’ve created using HTML and Notepad. After I create this page, I’ll save it as an example of HTML coding.” Save-As First_Program.htm (typically you will save in your wwwpub folder) Close file and exit Notepad Open the Internet Explorer file

Creating Heading Tags HTML supports six levels of headings, numbered <h1> through <h6>, with <h1> being the largest and most prominent. Headings are always displayed in a bold font.
12
Entering Heading Tags and Text
As of HTML 3.2, the heading tag can contain additional attributes, one of which is the alignment attribute.

Paragraphs <html> <head> <title> Mr. Dube’s Chemistry Class </title> </head> <body> <h1 align=“center”>Mr. Dube’s Chemistry Classes</h1> <h2 align=“center”>at Robert Service High School</h2> <p>Welcome to Mr. Dube’s Web Site. I hope you will use this site to learn more about your class, my expectations, and chemistry in the world around you.</p> <h2 Chemistry Classes</h2> <h2>Class Policies</h2> <h3>Grading</h3> <h3>Appointments</h3> <h3>Safety</h3> </body> </html> If you are using a test editor like NotePad, the text might not wrap to the next line automatically. Selecting the Word Wrap command within NotePad will allow you to see all the text on your screen.

Creating Lists HTML supports three kinds of lists:
an ordered list, which is used to display information in a numeric order an unordered list, which list items are not listed in a particular order i.e. bullets a definition list, which is a list of terms, each followed by a definition line that is typically indented slightly to the right
18
Creating Lists HTML supports three kinds of lists: Ordered: Unordered:
Definition:
19
Ordered List <ol> <li>Cream together butter and sugar
ORDERED LIST: <ol Option>…</ol> COMPACT START=Value TYPE=(A | a | I | i| 1) LIST ITEM: <li Option> - used in Ordered List and Unordered List <h3>Banana Nut Bread:</h3> <ol> <li>Cream together butter and sugar <li>Sift flour, baking soda and salt <li>Add nuts and mashed bananas </ol>
20
Unordered List <ul> <li>Cannelloni <li>Lasagna
UNORDERED LIST: <ul Option>…</ul> COMPACT TYPE=(CIRCLE | DISC | SQUARE) <h3>Pasta Perfection:</h3> <ul> <li>Cannelloni <li>Lasagna <li>Linguine <li>Manicotti </ul>
21
Definition List <dl> <dt>HTML </dl>
DEFINITION LIST: <dl>…</dl> - list of terms COMPACT a. DEFINITION TERM <dt> b. TERM DEFINITION <dd> <dl> <dt>HTML <dd>Hypertext Markup Language </dl>
22
Applying Character Tags
Italic <i> </i> and bold <b> </b> character tags If you support users with older browsers, you should use a logical tag. Otherwise, use physical tags, which are more common and easier to interpret.

Inserting Horizontal Lines
A horizontal line can improve the appearance of a Web page. The syntax for creating a horizontal line is: <hr align=“align” size=“size” width=“width” color=“color” noshade> align specifies the horizontal alignment of the line on the page (center, left, or right) size specifies the height of the line in pixels or percentage of the screen width width indicates the width of the line in pixels or percentage of the screen width color indicates the color of the line noshade specifies that the browser display a solid line
27
Different Line Styles size=12 width-100% size=6 width-50% size=3
<hr align=“center” size=“12” width=“100%”> <hr align=“center” size=“6” width=“50%”> size=6 width-50% <hr align=“center” size=“3” width=“25%”> size=3 width-25% size=1 width-10% <hr align=“center” size=“1” width=“10%”> You can use line styles to improve the appearance of your Web page.
