HTML- INTRODUCTION

HTML, or Hypertext Markup Language, is a markup language for the web that
defines the structure of web pages.

It is one of the most basic building blocks of every website.

What is HTML?

Hypertext: text (often with embeds such as images, too) that is organized in order
to connect related items
Markup: a style guide for typesetting anything to be printed in hardcopy or soft
copy format
Language: a language that a computer system understands and uses to interpret
commands.
HTML Elements
An element consists of the opening tag, a character, the content, and a closing tag.
Some elements are empty – that is, they don't have a closing tag but instead have a
source or link to content that you want to embed on the web page.

An example of an empty element is <img>, which you use to embed images on a


web page.
HTML elements are often used interchangeably with tags, but there's a small
difference between the two. An element is a combination of the opening and
closing tag, and then the content between them.

Formatting elements were designed to display special types of text:

 <b> - Bold text


 <strong> - Important text
 <i> - Italic text
 <mark> - Marked text
 <del> - Deleted text
 <ins> - Inserted text
 <sub> - Subscript text
 <sup> - Superscript text
