Hypertext - Answers -the text on a the browser that leads the user to related
information while markup language refers to the computer programming language that,
by using a set of annotations, gives browsers the instructions to display text, images,
and other web elements on a web page.
Elements - Answers -are enclosed by angle brackets like "<" The brackets help
browsers understand where information like hyperlinks, paragraphs, lists, colors should
be located on a web page to control the general appearance of the overall page.
Basically, the bracketed elements of HTML are the method used to portray the
arrangement of text-based information in a web page document.
Head Elements - Answers -define a web document's title, style, and additional
information about the document's author, page description, and keywords to help
search engines find the web page.
<title></title> - Answers -tags define the web page's title like <title >McCarthy Custom
Homes</title> that places the words "McCarthy Custom Homes" in a browser window's
title bar.
<style></style> - Answers -tags define an overall style for a webpage by describing
fonts, colors, and other design elements. For instance, the following HTML tells the
browser that the background color for a web page should be black (000000), the font for
the web page should use "Geneva", and the font size should be 14 point.
<style >
background-color: 000000;
font-family: Geneva;
font-size: 14px;
</style>
<meta></meta> - Answers -are additional pieces of information about the web page's
author, web page description, and keywords, to help search engines find the web page
like the following:
The "meta" description above provides a representation of the web site when it is found
by a search engine like Google so a user can read what the website is about before
clicking on its URL. The "meta" keywords provide search engines with words to match
those that a user might type into the search engine when looking for a type of website,
in this case, a custom homebuilder.
, Link elements - Answers -create elements that can become hyperlinks that allow web
page users to navigate to different parts of a web site, or different parts of the World
Wide Web. The following is an example of a link element: <a

Image Elements - Answers -special tags to help the browser window display pictures,
photographs, and images typically using the GIF or JPEG file formats like the following:

"meadow.gif" on a browser and, if the user places the cursor on the image, it will display
the word "meadow".
Structural (Block) Elements - Answers -designed to tell a browser how to display and
align elements like lists, headings and paragraphs. Like word processing programs,
structural HTML elements can align, center, and manipulate text and images into place
so the browser can render a more readable webpage. For instance, one of the main tag
elements creates a table with the <table ></table> tags with the <tr ></tr> tags creating
rows and the <td ></td> tags creating cells within a row.
Presentational Elements - Answers -are like <style ></style> head elements but are
used in the body of a webpage and allow the HTML to create presentational effects like
italics or bold for emphasis. For instance, <b >McCarthy Custom Homes</b> would
render the text between the "bold" tags like the following: McCarthy Custom Homes on
a browser.
JavaScript - Answers -programming language that is considered a client-side language
in reference to websites. Web developers can insert a JavaScript program in an HTML

The client's browser must be "java enabled" for the program to run and, since browsers
exist on the client side of the client/server model of the Internet, JavaScript programs
only work on the "client side."
Adobe Flash - Answers -can integrate video on a browser, add animations, promote
interactivity, and develop rich Internet applications.
