<body> It’s time to learn how HTML tags are used to create Web pages. All HTML pages begin with the html (the html must be included inside the < > brackets) tag and end with the /html (the /html must be included inside the < > brackets). Considering the huge amount of information on the Internet, Web pages are created from a surprisingly small number of tags, and you will find that they are easy to learn and use.
The HEAD element (delineated by the head and /head tags) comes next and serves as a box or container that can hold a variety of other elements, including the TITLE element. The TITLE element contains the words that appear on the title bar or page tab in the browser window. In this example, “Tags and Attributes” is the title. </body>
</html>
Create an HTML file Save the code that you just created as “tags.html” The extension .html designates a file to be opened by a browser Access the file and open it
How will the following examples of text be displayed by a Web browser?
<b>How would this text look different?</b> bolded text (deprecated) <strong>Does this look any different?</strong> strong or bolded text <i>How would this text be displayed?</i> italicized text (deprecated) <em>Same as italicized?</em> italicized text <u>This tag might be useful for titles.</u> underlined text <body text=red>How would this tag change things?</body> text color
would be red
Text size Text size can be altered by the use of tags
<h1>This tag creates large text</h1>
<h2>Creates a slightly smaller text</h2>
<h3>Is smaller yet, but still large</h3>
<h4>Starts getting smaller</h4>
<h5>Now the text is getting small</h5>
<h6>And finally, this is the smallest</h6>
Creating a Break• Browsers ignore the use of the “enter” key
• To force the browser to place text on the next line use the “break” tag <br>
• No closing tag is needed for this tag in HTML
Creating a Paragraph• <br> vs. <p> … </p>
• <br> places the text on the next line
• <p> … </p> creates a block or paragraph of text
Creating a Comment• Why would a Web designer want to use a comment?
• Comments can be created using code
• Comments do not show in the Web page when viewed
• <!-- This is an example of a comment -->
