What is HTML?
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) stands for HyperText Markup Language, is based on a much larger document processing system, SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language), and is the basic language used to structure pages on the World Wide Web (WWW). Every web page we visit on the internet contains code written in HTML.
How do we create html files?
We can create a file in HTML format with any text editor that can save text files in ASCII format. When saving, we make sure that our document has the extension .html or .htm
What are HTML tags?
Tags control the structure and format of the web page and the browser translates them into the graphical result we see when we visit a page. Most HTML tags consist of a start tag and an end tag, and between them is the text identified by those tags. The end tag contains the character / before the tag name.
Structure of HTML
For an HTML file to be translated correctly by the browser, it must always begin with the tag and consists of two sections: the header (HEAD) and the body (BODY).
