HTML TAGS
<h1>Hello World</h1> <p>HTML is nothing but text with formatting.</p>
- HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language.
- It is nothing more than “plain text with formatting”.
- E.G.
<h1> marks a heading, <p> marks a paragraph. - HTML tags should be in small letters –
<h1><p>. - Capital letters work but do not conform to coding standards…
OPENING & CLOSING TAGS
- Tags usually come in pairs.
<h1><p> is called the “starting/opening tag”, marking where the heading/paragraph begins. </h1></p> is called the “ending/closing tag”, marking where the heading/paragraph ends.
SELF-CLOSING TAGS
<br> <img src="image.png">
- Self-closing tags – Tags that don’t require closing tags.
- E.G.
<br> Line break and <img> Image.
ATTRIBUTES
- Take note that the image has an “image source” attribute to define which image to display –
src="image.png". src is called the property. Small letters. "image.png" is called the value. Can be enclosed in either double or single quotes.
