HTML Tutorial: 1

This is gona be the first of a lot of HTML tutorials I plan on relasing. This tutorial will go over the basics of HTML and how to make your own HTML page.
So, let’s get started!

Part 1: What is html?

HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is a markup language designed for the creation of web pages with hypertext and other information. HTML allows it to be parsed by a web browser. HTML is used to structure information, denoting certain text as headings, paragraphs, lists and so on. It can be used to describe, to some degree, the appearance and semantics of a document.

Part 2: What is the general syntax?

The syntax of HTML is very uniform, compared to other languages. It consists of elements (may be known as tags), properties, and inner content.

Each HTML element has to be wraped in <these>. There are hundreds of elements, which have their own properties. A property is like this: <tag property="value">

Part 3: How should my document look?

Below is a small bit of how your HTML document should look.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<html>

<head>

<title>Your page title</title>

<style type='text/css'>

//Your CSS

</style>

<script type='text/javascript'>

//Your javascript

</script>

</head>

<body>

Your content

</body>

</html>

Important: some people think that you don’t need to close your tags. You, infact, do. If you don’t, your entire document will be buggy.

This is the end of this tutorial. I will continue in part 2, and I’ll talk about the difrent elements and their properties
