WEB DESIGN
GUIDE – HTML
TEMPLATE
All HTML
documents have the following template.
You should always start with the following:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
|
A FEW DETAILS ABOUT TAGS
- Each line above contains one tag. A tag starts with the < symbol and
ends with the > symbol.
- A tag can be an opening tag or a closing tag.
- The <html> tag is an
opening tag.
- The </html> tag is a
closing tag. Closing tags have a
/ symbol in them.
- Everything between the
<html> and </html> tags is inside the html section.
A FEW MORE DETAILS ABOUT
THE TEMPLATE
- All the content of your web page is to appear in the
body section. So it is to be
placed between the <body> tag and the </body> tag.
- The head section of the document contains information
about the document, not information that is to appear in the
document. We will put little
information in this section for now.
- Notice that the head and body sections are inside
the html section. Also notice
that the head section appears before the body section.
VIEW THIS PAGE
- If you view this page (containing the template
above) in a browser, it will be an empty web page.
