HTML

Web pages are written in a programming language known as Hypertext Mark-up Language (HTML) for them to display in any Web browser.

This is an example of some HTML:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Localdial.com Help Pages</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

Hi! This is an example of some Hypertext Mark-up Language.

</BODY>
</HTML>

Tags usually have three parts tag name, attribute and value.

E.g. <TAG attribute="value">.

HTML can be written in two ways:

  • Using a WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) Editor such as Microsoft Frontpage Express.
  • By hand using anything from a basic word processor (Notepad on PC / Simpletext on Mac) to a full featured HTML editor such as Allaire HomeSite.

If you would like to have more control over positioning etc you are best to write the HTML by hand. This way you pick up HTML quicker (It may look complicated to start with but after a while it begins to get easier).

The next part is divided into sections. Basic, Text Formatting, Links, Images, Sound, Misc, Tables, Frames, Image Maps and Colour.
