Welcome to the HTML Tutorial! If you have never written HTML code before, you should start with this section. If you've written HTML before, you should feel free to skip ahead to the Basic section at least. See the Table of Contents for topics of interest.
Section Goals
When you're done with this section, you should be able to:
- Create and make alterations to a simple web page
- Explain what HTML tags and HTML attributes are
- Use your web browser to help you learn about HTML and diagnose problems with your pages.
Subsections
- Diving In
- In this section, we waste no time in diving in and creating a simple web page.
- Structure
- In this section, we look at document structure: the
<html>tag, the<head>, the<title>, and the<body>. - Tinkering
- In this section, we make some alterations to our "Simple Web Page". We'll add text, change the background color, and explore how HTML handles whitespace.
- Tags
- In this section, we explore tag properties. What are the components of a tag? What happens if you misspell a tag? And is there a use for the
<blink>tag? - Attributes
- In this section, we take a look at attributes. Attributes modify the behavior of a tag. We'll look at the components of an attribute and talk about attribute whitespace, attribute misspellings, and other issues.
- Browser Tools
- This section explains how to use several useful features in your browser that will help you learn HTML: View Source, View Page Properties, Save Image, and more.
