  1. HTML BASICS Web Design I

  2. Web Design • WWW created in the late 1980’s • Used in academics for the next 5 years • Mosaic (1994) allowed both pictures & text in Web Pages {freeware out of University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana) • Netscape Navigator (1995)

  3. Web Design • Internet Explorer • Firefox • Camino • Opera • Safari

  4. HTML • HTML Page or HTML Document • Create: • Specialized Software • FrontPage – Microsoft • GoLive – Adobe • Dreamweaver – Macromedia “Macromedia now owns Adobe”

  5. HTML • Software programs organize, enter text, Create Superior Web Page Effects without ever entering HTML • New Version of Microsoft Word and Corel WordPerfect also have built in HTML Tags • Most word processing programs or text editors today will work to create HTML and/or JavaScript

  6. Extensions • .doc – Microsoft Word Document • .rtf – Microsoft’s Rich Text Format • .wpd – Corel WordPerfect Document • .txt – Text File • .html – HTML file • .htm – HTML file on some computer Systems

  7. HTML • Devised by Tim Berners-Lee late 1980’s • Particle Physics Lab in Cern, Switzerland • 1993 Marc Anderson developed an image tag; HTML could display images and text

  8. HTML • HTML tag: <> angle brackets • HTML tags: come in pairs called tag sets • HTML tags: starting tag or opening tag and an ending tag or closing tag • HTML tag sets tell the browser where formatting should start and end.

  9. HTML • A forward slash in the brackets indicates an ending tag <bold>very</bold> Very: will appear in bold

  10. HTML • Some HTML Tags come in pairs • A HTML Tag that requires just an opening tag is called an empty tag <BR> - add a line break <HR> - insert a horizontal line <IMG> - insert an image

  11. HTML • Nested Tags – nesting refers to the order in which HTML tags appear <html><P><bold>very</bold></P></html> very

  12. HTML • Hypertext Markup Language (html) • Code used to create Web Pages • Customize pages created in FrontPage and other Web Design Software • Use a text editor to enter HTML code into a text document • Or use software (like FrontPage) to do it for you

  13. HTML TAGS (< >) HTML tag is text that appears between two angle brackets This text tells the browser how to display the a page’s content.

  14. TAG SETS • HTML tags often come in pairs that are called tag sets. • Each pair includes a starting tag (opening tag) and an ending tag (closing tag) • The tag sets tell a browser where formatting should start and end. • A forward slash </> means an ending tag

  15. HTML • <b> very </b> This is a tag set that makes text bold

  16. HTML TAGS • <html><p>It is <i>very</i> important to carefully proofread your <b>HTML</b> code. </p></html> It is very important to carefully proofread your HTML code.

  17. NESTED TAGS • Nesting refers to the order in which HTML tags appear • A nested tag is a tag enclosed inside another set of tags. • In other words, our example shows: the italic tag and the boldface tag are nested within the paragraph tag set.

  18. NESTED TAGS • When nesting tags, make sure you close the tag when you want the format to stop • The browser will format until it comes to an end tag <html><p><b>very</b></p></html> very

  19. EMPTY TAGS • A tag that requires only an opening tag is called an empty tag or an orphan tag {there isn’t a closing tag} EXAMPLES • To add a line break enter <br> • To add a horizontal line enter <hr>

  20. SPACING • Html documents display a single space between words • If you use the space bar, tab key, or enter key to add spaces you will not see those spaces in a Web Browser SPACING DOES NOT MATTER

  21. CASE SENSITIVITY • If a tag is in upper case or lower case it does not matter HTML IS NOT CASE SENSITIVE

  22. SOURCE CODE • A Web page’s source code is the text and HTML commands used to create that page. View Menu: Source or Page FrontPage: • code view or • HTML view & with 2003 Split View

  23. EXAMPLE Giraffes are known for their long necks <B> Giraffes </B> are known for their long necks Giraffes are known for their long necks

  24. NEW LANGUAGE • XHTML – Extensible Hypertext Markup Language developed by the W3C is a hybrid of HTML and will soon replace it. (World Wide Web Consortium)

  25. Project • All examples of HTML can be found on the Internet: How Stuff Works.com and various sites • To write code you must use notepad or wordpad

  26. Project Enter the Initial HTML Tags <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> </TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> </BODY> </HTML> Your title is: My Web Page Select a color and (ie: #00066) and insert a new paragraph with My Web Page a different color

  27. Project • In the body of your HTML insert a picture (jpeg) of your choice. • Then: • Print your notepad; then copy and paste your notepad document into Front Page
