HTML Tags

There's a couple different tags I'd like to familiarize you with before proceding into anymore detailed work.  This should give you a better understanding of what's going on later on down the road.

Tag Setup

<html>

    <head>
          <title></title>
    </head>
    <body>


    </body>
</html>

Above is the basic setup of all websites.  This is where you should begin when creating a page.  Although not mandatory it is good practice to start with this sort of layout to help keep things ordered.  Next we will talk about each of the tags individually.

 Top



<HTML>

The <html> tag starts the initial html coded area.  This simply tells the browser what's coming.  That is HTML.

 Top



<HEAD>

The <head> tag starts the head of the page.  Normally this will contain any information you would like to load first.  For instance external style sheets (see CSS).  Or the title of the page.  Be sure to close the head tag when finished (</head>).

 Top



<TITLE>

The <title> tag allows you to create the title of the page.  Note how this page is titled Code It All - HTML Tags. To do this you would just write Code It All - HTML Tags in between <title> and </title>.

 Top



<BODY>

The <body> tag is the rest of the page, all you need to do is put the rest of the code within the body tags.  Be sure to have closed the head (</head>) tag prior to opening the body tag.  Don't forget to close the body tag as well (</body>) after which you must close the html tag.  (</html>).
