HTML Notes
HTTP = HyperText Transfer Protocols
CSS = Cascading StyleSheets
Every HTML document contains two types of information: stuff
that computers need to know, and stuff that humans need to
know.
The head element will hold information that helps the browser
display your content…
The <body> element will hold your content itself.
Spacing and tabbing your code is like the grammar of HTML.
Heading tags range from <h1> to <h6>. <h6> is the furthest it
will go.
Anchor tab= <a href=http://link.com>Link</a>
Link Attributes = rel, type & href.
Rel= relationship between linked file to current file.
Type= What type of file is being linked.
Href= gives path to the file.
Key Definitions
World Wide Web: An information sharing model built on top of a global
system of interconnected computer networks called the Internet.
Websites: Collections of files, accessible through the world wide web.
Clients: Personal devices such as computers, phones, or tablets, used to
access the web.
Servers: Special computers that host massive amounts of the files that make
up websites. They “serve” those files to end users.
HTML Elements: The building blocks of HTML. Consists of a start tag,
content, and end tag.
HTML Tags: HTML syntax used to indicate to a web browser how to present
content. Bookended by angle brackets.
Focal Point: Establishes the primary point of visual emphasis and interest
Hierarchy: Signifies the importance of objects on the screen: Setting a focal
point, then setting up page components based on their relative importance
Flow: The movement of the user’s eye through the site content, initiated by a
focal point, influenced by hierarchy.
