To write HTML pages you really need to know very few steps.
To write FANCY
HTML pages, you need to know a little more.
HTML means HyperText Markup Language. It is text, that you mark up
with tags to make it more fancy.
You create tags by using a left bracket and a right bracket. (You find these
above the comma and the period.) The title of this page is "html". The
tags for that would look like this.
<title>HTML</title>
Note that the tag that finishes the title has a forward
slash in it. This means is is the end of this particular markup.
 | Open heading <H1>
Headings are much bigger than normal text |
 | End heading </H1> |
 | New paragraph <P> |
 | End paragraph </P> |
 | Open body
<body>
Whatever is in the "body" will be seen on the web. |
 | End body
</BODY> |
 | The tags are not case sensitive |
The minimum tags for a simple page are these:
<html>
<head>
<TITLE>Type your title here</TITLE>
</head>
<body>
<H1>A big heading will appear here</H1>
<P>This is to type a paragraph</P>
<P>This is for another paragraph</P>
</body>
</html>
Type this text in a simple text editor,
like notepad. Than save it as text.htm
Now you can open that file in your web browser.
It will look quite different from the way you typed it.
