Online HTML Class
HTML looks very confusing at first, but it is actually a very simple language to understand. HTML consists of tags that usually come in pairs, with something in between them. The tags normally consist of a single letter, but some have more, and the closing tag is preceded by a forward slash ('/'). For example:
<p>This is part of a paragraph...</p>
<p>...And this is another paragraph</p>
<strong>Anything inbetween strong tags will stand out</strong>
To create headings for your page, there are six tags for headers, <h1>,<h2>,<h3>,<h4>,<h5>,<h6> with h1 (header 1) being the largest, and h6 the smallest. These will help you to separate content for your site.
A Basic web page layout
A basic webpage layout will look something like:
<html>
<head>
<title>Page title here</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to my site</h1>
<p>This is where you enter the content for your page</p>
</body>
</html>
This will produce a bland HTML page in black and white. It is beyond the current scope of this site at this moment on how to style the page using CSS, but other HTML lessons are available on the web.
