HTML Tutorial: A Complete Guide to HTML Tags
HTML is an extraordinarily simple language to learn. All you need to get started is a text editor and browser.
The first step is to open your text editor:
- Windows: Open Notepad.
- Mac: Open SimpleText.
- Mac OSX: Open TextEdit and in the preferences window set the preferences as follows: select "Plain Text" as opposed to "Rich Text" and choose "Ignore rich text commands in HTML files."
Type the following:
<html> <head> <title>Page Title</title> </head> |
Save this file to your desktop as webpage.html. Now, close your text editor and open the file using Internet Explorer or the browser of your choice. Congratulations! You've written your first HTML webpage!
Later in this tutorial we will review the ins and outs of html as well as more advanced coding practices like CSS and the use of WYSIWYG (What You See is What You Get) editors like FrontPage and Dreamweaver. For now, let's look at how to upload these pages so they can be seen online.
