Basics of HTML5

What is HTML?

HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language, It consists of a series of element used to describe a web page. Basically, it tells the browser how to display the data.




HTML Page Structure

Below is a visualization of an HTML page structure:



HTML tags are element names surrounded by angle brackets:

<tagname>content goes here...</tagname>





HTML elements are represented by tags
For example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>

<h1>My First Heading</h1>
<p>My first paragraph.</p>

</body>
</html>





  • The <!DOCTYPE html> declaration defines this document to be HTML5
  • The <html> element is the root element of an HTML page
  • The <head> element contains meta information about the document
  • The <title> element specifies a title for the document
  • The <body> element contains the visible page content
  • The <h1> element defines a large heading
  • The <p> element defines a paragraph



The <!DOCTYPE> Declaration

The <!DOCTYPE> declaration represents the document type, and helps browsers to display web pages correctly.
It must only appear once, at the top of the page (before any HTML tags).
The <!DOCTYPE> declaration is not case sensitive.
