HTML Basics: Introduction to HTML

Hey guys on this occasion I will make a tutorial introduction to HTML, although I'm sure some of you are already familiar with one of the markup language to make this web. In particular this paper, I addressed to you who still lay and wanted to create a website, so for those of you who are proficient can pass it :)

A brief history of HTML

HTML is a markup language and is a continuation of Hyper Text Markup Language, HTML so this for you initially thinks is one programming language was not, and HTML is a markup language other than CSS. HTML was first designed in 1989 by a team of Berners-Lee. He is a British scientist working at CERN. In its development, there are some terms that accompany the development of HTML technologies such as SGML, XML, XHTML, W3C, and WHATWG. I'm not going to discuss one by one the terms of the technology, because so many have discussed it on the internet. Currently the latest version of HTML is HTML5 already experienced a lot of changes so it has more complete functions.

HTML functions


So what's the function of HTML itself? Maybe some of you who had met with HTML would be asking questions like that. HTML function is to create the structure of a website. HTML is used to mark parts which will be the title of the article, which part serves as the content of the article, or which parts need to be presented in tables, forms, or list. To create a modern website that is pleasing to the eye with a view not stiff you cannot just use HTML alone, but require other markup language that is CSS. A few days ago I've written briefly about CSS, I hope you read it.

Text Editor

To write HTML syntax you need a text editor, and it's been a lot of text editor that you can use ranging from the very simple to complete. For a simple text editor that you can use without downloading is a notepad, you can access it via the Windows menu -> Accessories -> Notepad. Or it could be through the run window and then you type "notepad". As for the text editor that can be downloaded is notepad ++, Bracket, Atom, Aptana Studio, Eclipse or Net Beans. From some of the text editor I suggest you use notepad ++, as well as the small file size is also very lightweight application run does not require a large memory allocation and the most important of course is a free text editor. Currently the latest version of Notepad ++ is v6.9.2, and you can download it via this site.

Basic Structure of HTML

The basic structure of writing HTML is a standard HTML code in order to run properly on a web browser. Oh yes I forgot to explain to run the html file that you created later by using a web browser application. Currently, many web browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Netscape, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and more. An HTML file consists of tags, elements and attributes is what we call as the basic structure of writing HTML. Here's an example of writing HTML to format a basic structure that you can later develop a more complete again.

<html>
<head>
<title>Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>
My First Heading</h1>
My first paragraph.</body>
</html>
Write down or copy the HTML syntax above into the text editor notepad or notepad ++, and save it as test.html and then run through your favorite web browser. So at a glance tutorial introduction to HTML, look out for my next article that will discuss elements, tags and attributes. Hopefully this brief tutorial could provide benefits for those who are learning HTML, and if there are still less clear than this tutorial you can contact me via the contact page on this blog.
