HTML ORIGIN & VERSIONS


Physicist Tim Berners-Lee, in 1990, proposed and prototyped a system for European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) researchers to use and share documents. Berners-Lee specified HTML and wrote the browser and server software for rendering HTML documents towards the end of 1990. In the mid 1990s, the popularity of HTML soared and standardization of the same was done. Popular versions: HTML 2.0 November 1995. HTML 3.2 January 1997. HTML 4.0 December 1997. HTML 5.0 January 2008.

HTML - INTRODUCTION
HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is the predominant markup language for web pages. HTML elements are the basic building-blocks of web pages. HTML is written in the form of HTML elements consisting of tags, enclosed in angle brackets. Example: <html>

A series of tags that are integrated into a text document form the content of all HTML codes. HTML tells the browser what to do, and what props to use. The browser uses the tags to interpret the content of the page.

HTML TAGS
They are surrounded with angle brackets. Example: <> . They come in pairs, mostly. Example: <p> and </p> . The first tag turns an associated action on, and the second turns it off. The second tag(off switch) starts with a forward slash. Example: </b>. Tags are not case sensitive, i.e., <b> and <B> start the same action. Many tags have attributes. For example, <P ALIGN=CENTER> centers the paragraph following it.

HTML ELEMENTS
An HTML element is everything from the start tag to the end tag. An HTML element starts with a start tag / opening tag. An HTML element ends with an end tag / closing tag. The element content is everything between the start and the end tag. Some HTML elements have empty content. Empty elements are closed in the start tag.
Start tag <p> <a href="default.htm" > <br /> Element content New Paragraph New Link Empty End tag </p> </a> (Not Needed)

HTML HEADINGS, PARAGRAPHS & LINKS


HTML Headings: Headings are defined with the <h1> to <h6> tags. <h1> defines the most important heading. <h6> defines the least important heading. HTML Paragraphs: Paragraphs are defined with the <p> tag. Browsers automatically add an empty line before and after a paragraph. Use the <br /> tag if you need a line break (a new line) without starting a new paragraph. HTML Links: The HTML code for a link is <a href="url">Link text</a> .

HTML IMAGES
In HTML, images are defined with the <img> tag. The <img> tag is empty, which means that it contains attributes only, and has no closing tag. To display an image on a page, you need to use the src attribute. Src stands for "source". The value of the src attribute is the URL of the image you want to display. Syntax for defining an image: <img src="url" alt="some_text"/> The required alt attribute specifies an alternate text for an image, if the image cannot be displayed.The value of the alt attribute is an author-defined text. Syntax: <img src="boat.gif" alt="Big Boat" />

A <td> tag can contain text, links, images, lists, forms, other tables, etc. Example: <table border="1"> <tr> <td>row 1, cell 1</td> <td>row 1, cell 2</td> </tr> </table> OUTPUT:

HTML FORMS
HTML forms are used to pass data to a server. A form can contain input elements like text fields, checkboxes, radio-buttons, submit buttons and more. A form can also contain select lists, textarea, fieldset, legend, and label elements. The <form> tag is used to create an HTML form: <form> input elements </form> The most important form element is the input element.

HTML MEDIA
Multimedia comes in many different formats. It can be almost anything you can hear or see like text, pictures, music, sound, videos, records, films, animations, and more. Multimedia elements (like sounds or videos) are stored in media files.The most common way to discover the media type is to look at the file extension. When a browser sees the file extensions .htm or .html, it will assume that the file is an HTML page. The .xml extension indicates an XML file, and the .css extension indicates a style sheet. Picture formats are recognized by extensions like .gif and .jpg. Multimedia elements also have their own file formats with different extensions like .swf, .wmv, .mp3, and .mp4.

CONCLUSION LOOKING AHEAD


HTML, though is simple and easy to learn, but has serious inherent flaws in it. HTML is a very forgiving language, because it oversees many inconsistent and erroneous codes. This may result in different browsers interpreting HTML pages differently. Hence, eXtensible Hypertext Markup Language (XHTML) is used as an alternative.

XHTML has stricter rules, which causes less variance among browsers and more consistency in results.
