13 cool tricks for HTML | Freelancer.com

Welcome to HTML!


HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language.

Unlike a scripting or programming language that uses scripts to perform functions, a markup language uses tags to identify content.

Here is an example of an HTML tag
 Example:-
<p> I am a paragraph</p>

The <html> Tag



Although various versions have been released over the years, HTML basics remain the same.

The structure of an HTML document has been compared with that of a sandwich. As a sandwich has two slices of bread, the HTML document has opening and closing HTML tags.

These tags, like the bread in a sandwich, surround everything else:

<html>
..........
.........
</html>


The <head> Tag



Immediately following the opening HTML tag, you'll find the head of the document, which is identified by opening and closing head tags.

The head of an HTML file contains all of the non-visual elements that help make the page work.

<html>
<head>..</head>
</html>

The <body> Tag



The body tag follows the head tag.
All visual-structural elements are contained within the body tag.
Headings, paragraphs, lists, quotes, images, and links are just a few of the elements that can be contained within the body tag.
<html>
<head>..</head>
<body></body>
</html>
