NEW HTML POINTS AND HTML BASICS WITH NEW TOPICS

HTML?
HTML is not a programming language
A type of SGML (standard generalized
markup language)
HTML uses paired tags to markup different
elements of a page
We will discuss XHTML later.
Language that drives web pages in WWW
It is where we will start the semester

Editing Your HTML File
Try not to use Notepad use EditPlus
instead
WYSIWYG editor, like FrontPage
PHP Designer or HTMLGateFree
Familiarize with the mechanics
Without using WISIWYG like Frontpage
Understand the coding behind web pages
Provides you the knowledge to make
changes

Publish at marqone.busadm.mu.edu
We’ll publish on the server designated for the
class
Using an FTP server like Filezilla
The server also have a file transfer program
but Filezilla is easier to use

Words to remember
Tag
 Used to specify special regions to the web
browser. Tags look like this: <tag>
Element
 A complete tag, having an opening <tag> and
a closing <tag>.
Attribute
 Used to modify the value of the HTML
element. Elements will often have multiple
attributes.

Element?
 An element consists of three basic parts: an
opening tag, the element's content, and
finally, a closing tag.
 <p> - opening paragraph tag
 Element Content - paragraph content
 </p> - closing tag
 Every webpage contains four basic
elements. The html, head, title, and body
elements.

More elements
<html> begins and ends each and every web
page.
The <head> element comes next.
 Tags placed within the head element are not
directly displayed by browsers.
Place the <title> tag within the <head>
element to title your page. The title will be
displayed at the top of a viewer's browser.
The <body> element is where all content is
placed. Paragraphs, pictures, tables, etc.

A Simple HTML File – ex1.html

Exercise – ex1.html
Using Filezilla – open
marqone.busadm.mu.edu
Enter user name and password
mkdir – “exercise”
Go into the exercise directory
create ex1.html with HTMLGateFree
Test it before you download to the “server”
Download and test

Tags
 Tags are embedded commands within a
document that communicate to the browser.
 <opening tag> Content </closing tag>
 Any number of white-spaces are compressed
into a single one
 Examples of Tags
 <p>Paragraph Tag</p>
 <h2>Heading Tag</h2>
 <b>Bold Tag</b> or <strong> Bold Tag </strong>
 <i>Italic Tag</i> or <em> Italic Tag </i>

More HTML tags
 Tags Without Closing Tags
 They still have the 3 basic parts
(opening/closing and content).
 do not require a formal </closingtag>
 Examples:
 <img src="mypic.jpg" /> -- Image Tag
 <br /> -- Line Break Tag
 <input type="text" size="12" /> -- Input Field

Lists – un-numbered
 Unnumbered Lists:
<UL>
<LI> apples </LI>
<LI> bananas </LI>
<LI> grapefruit </LI>
</UL>
 Unnumbered Lists with
different pointer types:
<UL type="square">
<LI> oranges </LI>
<LI> peaches </LI>
<LI> grapes </LI>
</UL>
type="square"
type="disc"
type="circle"

Lists - numbered
 Unnumbered Lists:
<UL>
<LI> apples </LI>
<LI> bananas </LI>
<LI> grapefruit </LI>
</UL>
 Numbered Lists:
<OL>
<LI> oranges </LI>
<LI> peaches </LI>
<LI> grapes </LI>
</OL>

Lists - numbered
 Numbered Lists that
starts with 4:
<OL start="4">
<LI> oranges </LI>
<LI> peaches </LI>
<LI> grapes </LI>
</OL>
 Numbered Lists with
different ordering:
<OL type="a">
<LI> oranges </LI>
<LI> peaches </LI>
<LI> grapes </LI>
</OL>
type="a": a, b, c
type="A": A, B, C
type="i": i, ii, iii
type="I": I, II, III

Lists
TIPS
Use the start and type attributes to customize your
lists. It is possible to make lists of lists, which is
helpful for creating some items, such as outlines.

Put it all together so far
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>The document title</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1>Main heading</H1>
<P>A paragraph.</P>
<P>Another paragraph.</P>
<UL> Things that I like </UL>
<LI>A list item.</LI>
<LI>Another list item.</LI>
</UL>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Block vs. Inline Elements
<h2><em>This header will be bold and
italicized</em></h2>
OR
<em><h2>This header will be bold and
italicized</h2></em>
<em> and <h2> are different kinds of tags.
<h2>: header elements are BLOCK-LEVEL
elements.
<em>: is an INLINE-LEVEL element.

Formatting
<p>An example of <b>Bold Text</b> </p>
<p>An example of <em>Emphasized Text</em> </p>
<p>An example of <strong>Strong Text</strong> </p>
<p>An example of <i>Italic Text</i> </p>
<p>An example of <sup>superscripted Text</sup> </p>
<p>An example of <sub>subscripted Text</sub> </p>
<p>An example of <del>struckthrough Text</del> </p>
<p>An example of <code>Computer Code Text</code> </p>
<center>Centering of text in page</center>

Hyperlinks
 The most important capability of HTML
 Both text and image can serve as anchors
for the link
