HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. It is the standard markup language used to create web pages.

What is Hypertext Markup ?

  1. Hypertext is a special text or links through which we can move from one web page to another page.
  2. Markup means simply mark-up a text document with special meaningful text (called tags) that tells a web browser to display the contents in specified structure.

HTML Extension

HTML files have extension “.htm" and “.html" . You can create one using a simple text editor like Notepad (Windows) or TextEdit (Mac).

HTML Tags

HTML tags are surrounded by angle brackets (<>).

<tagname> Code goes here…</tagname>

Here <tagname> is the opening tag and </tagname> is the close tag.

HTML Page structure

A basic HTML document consists of the following structure:

<html>
<head>
    <title>Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>
    Page Content goes here…
</body>
</html>
  • <!DOCTYPE html> declares that you are using HTML5.
  • <html> is the root element.
  • <head> contains meta-information about the document, such as the page title.
  • <body> contains the visible content of the page.

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>
    <p>My first HTML File.</p>
</body>
</html>
