Introducation Of Html

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is the standard language used


to create and structure content on the web. It forms the backbone
of web pages, allowing developers to organize and present text,
images, videos, links, forms, and other content on websites.

Key Points about HTML:

 Markup Language: HTML is not a programming language, but a


markup language used to structure content using tags.
 Tags: HTML uses elements enclosed in tags (e.g., <h1>, <p>,
<img>) to define different parts of a webpage. Tags usually
come in pairs: an opening tag and a closing tag (e.g., <p> and
</p>).
 Document Structure: An HTML document is typically
structured with elements like:
o <html>: The root element of the document.
o <head>: Contains metadata like the title of the page, links
to stylesheets, and other information not visible to the user.
o <body>: Contains the content of the webpage that is
visible to the user.
Basic Structure of an HTML Document:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-
scale=1.0">
<title>Sample Webpage</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to My Webpage</h1>
<p>This is a simple HTML document.</p>
</body>
</html>

Elements in HTML:

1. Headings: HTML has six levels of headings, <h1> being the


most important and <h6> the least.
o Example: <h1>Title</h1>

2. Paragraphs: The <p> tag is used to define paragraphs.


o Example: <p>This is a paragraph of
text.</p>
3. Links: The <a> tag is used to create hyperlinks to other pages
or resources.
o Example: <a
href="https://www.example.com">Visit
Example</a>
4. Images: The <img> tag is used to embed images in a
webpage.
o Example: <img src="image.jpg"
alt="Description">
5. Lists: There are two types of lists in HTML:
o Ordered lists (<ol>) for numbered items.

o Unordered lists (<ul>) for bulleted items.

o Example:

<ul>

<li>Item 1</li>

<li>Item 2</li>

</ul>

Why HTML is Important:

 Foundation of Web Development: HTML is the starting point


for building websites, often paired with CSS (for styling) and
JavaScript (for interactivity).
 Structure and Accessibility: HTML ensures content is
structured logically and can be read by browsers and screen
readers, making it essential for web accessibility.
In summary, HTML provides the structure and content of web
pages, making it essential for anyone involved in web
development.
