SOME FACTS ABOUT WEBPAGES:
  • The first thing to know is that an html page is made entirely of tags and their elements.
  • Most tags in html have a begin tag (ex: <h1>)and an end to the tag (ex: </h1>) that surrounds the data (element) that it wants to render a specific way. The begin tag tells the browser when and how to start rendering the element and the end tag tells the browser when to stop rendering the element.
  • The basic web page has three main parts and each has a begin & end tag:
    1. HTML
    2. HEAD
    3. BODY
    Anything that you want to see on your web page will go within your <body> </body> tags
ADDING TEXT TO YOUR WEB PAGE:
Add the purple text to the left into your source code between the <body> </body> tags
  • SAVE YOUR SOURCE
  • VIEW YOUR HTML SOURCE THROUGH THE BROWSER
    • Open a browser
      (IE, Netscape, Mozilla)
    • Click the menu item 'File' -> 'Browse' to Find your source code.
    		•
    The Browser should render your page like this.

    NOTE:
    Use Notepad to add/edit the source (html tags and elements) to the web page and the browser to see what it looks like (rendering). You must save your source before viewing in the browser. If you have saved your source and you still dont see your "new" stuff, refresh the browser.
    YOU DO NOT NEED AN INTERNET CONNECTION TO VIEW YOUR HTML PAGES THROUGH THE BROWSER.
