Learning HTML is rather simple when compared to otherlanguages. This simplicity is due to the usage of simple English words as building block of a HTML page.These English words are known as ‘HTML tags’ in HTML jargon. There is plethora of above said HTML tags available at your disposal. The HTML tags are normal English words, what distinguishes these html tags from rest of the document is that they are kept inside small brackets. So the paragraph tag is and the table tag is .
Some HTML tags are employed to dictate the look and feel of a HTML document ( inserts a new document) while others dictate how words appear ( makes the text bold). Still there are others, which provide various kinds of other functionalities. Some tags should be used in pairs i.e., Every time you use a tag – say - you should put an ending tag - in this case . The preceding ‘/’ indicates that is an ending tag. There are few other tags that do not require the closing tag. The paragraph tag is an example for this type of tags. The majority of tags are used for appearance purpose.
This is bold while this is italicized.
The HTML for the above sentence will looks like:
This is bold while this is italicized.
Your text may look bizarre if you forget to put the preceding ‘/’ to any of the closing tag. The output you get will be different from what you’ve expected.
Missing ‘/’ is one most of the common errors made by neophyte html coders. There are many html editors available in the market, which will do the entire messy html coding for you.
