HTML Lesson 1: The Basics
Table Of Contents | Lessons:HTML2
Basic HTML requires only a very small learning curve. The hardest thing is memorizing the tags. You can find a list of those here: Tags:HTML (standard HTML) or here: Tags:XHTML (for XHTML).
Beginning Your Page
First thing you'll need to add is the <tt><!DOCTYPE></tt> tag. This tells the browser the version and also the edition of the HTML you are using. It would be HTML 4.01 Transitional or XHTML 1.0 Strict, for example.
To begin HTML 4.01 Transitional: <pre><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/DTD/loose.dtd"></pre>
To begin XHTML 1.0 Strict: <pre><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C/DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"></pre>
Body Markup
