IF YOU NEED TO KNOW MORE INFO ON HTML!

HTML

HTML is the language of websites. Webpages appear to be clear-cut, easy to read documents, but they come in all shapes and sizes. How do you tell a webpage where an image goes? How do you tell it to make a table and put it somewhere? Well, you need a special code for it, and that code is called HTML.

 

HTML takes a regular text document and use little codes, called “tags,” to paint a webpage on your screen. If you just write a website in plain text, it will show up as plain text, with no background, no bolding or italicizing, no images and no fancy fonts. Tags tell your browser to do all these things to the page and the text.

 

A simple tag looks like this:

 

< strong >Hi guys!< /strong >
This results in:
Hi guys!

 

All tags are enclosed in little angle brackets, “< ” and ” >”. Anything inside “< ” and ” >” is read as a code, so it’s not displayed. That means that anything you put inside the brackets won’t show up on the webpage – instead, it will tell the webpage to do something.

 

The “< strong >” tag tells the browser to start painting something. The “< /strong >” tag tells it to stop. If you don’t tell it to stop, it’ll just keep doing it to the end of the document – so, as a rule, always tell it to stop. Different tags have different effects. In this case, the < strong > tag makes the text bold. Most tags are an abbreviation of their effect, so < strong > is for bold, < em > is for italic, and < u > is for underline. There’s a full list below, so I won’t go into excessive detail. You can also combine tags like this:

 

< strong >< em >< u >Bold, italic and underlined all at once!< /u >< /em >< /strong >
Bold, italic and underlined all at once!

 

When should I use HTML?

For this article, the simple answer is to accommodate a client’s request. Many articles written for the service will need to be tailored to the Web, so clients will often ask you to format the article a particular way and include some HTML code to make it look nice and meet their needs.

 

 

Please don’t include HTML when not requested to do so. Many orders aren’t going directly on the web! HTML isn’t really used outside of the Web, so the client will need to trim out your codes or request a revision, and you’ll have wasted a bunch of time adding things that didn’t need to be there in the first place.
