Why You Should Learn HTML

Written by Debra Hamer


Continued from page 1

The following are some tags for Headings (there are 6 heading commands) and Font size (there are 12 font size commands):

This is Heading 1

– H1 isrepparttar largest heading  
This is Heading 6
- H6 isrepparttar 118029 smallest heading   So, by using H1 through H6 you can changerepparttar 118030 size of your heading. Same applies to your font size. You will use through and don’t forget your end tags!

You may notice that your text always starts atrepparttar 118031 left ofrepparttar 118032 page. If you want your text to start inrepparttar 118033 center or torepparttar 118034 right you will need to specify where you want your text to start. Here are some examples of aligning text:

Center this Text!
- your text will be centered onrepparttar 118035 page.

To align torepparttar 118036 right you need to setrepparttar 118037 text as a paragraph unto itself by usingrepparttar 118038

tag and adding an attribute to it.

Text here will align onrepparttar 118039 right ofrepparttar 118040 page

Why did I put an end tag

sincerepparttar 118041 paragraph command does not require an end tag (remember exceptions torepparttar 118042 rule?) Anytime you use an attribute tag, as inrepparttar 118043 above example, you will need to have an end tag, whether you’re usingrepparttar 118044 paragraph command

orrepparttar 118045 return command
. Usingrepparttar 118046

or
command by itself does not require an end tag, but if you are adding an attribute then an end tag must be used.

Adding an image to your page would requirerepparttar 118047 following tag:

-you would replace “image.jpg” with your own image file. IMG stand for image and SRC stand for source. You’re telling your browser where to find your image file. Your image file could have a gif, jpg, or a bmp association.

Ok now let’s get a little more complicated and create a hyperlink on your document. This creates blue underlined words onrepparttar 118048 page that someone can click on and go to another location. An example is you’re creating a link to another website.

Myhomepage - this is what in looks like in HTML code. Note you are adding a description ofrepparttar 118049 link that will be underlined, seerepparttar 118050 example below.

Myhomepage – what it looks like in normal view. When someone clicks on this link they would be taken to that particular page. I just used Myhomepage as an example.

This is a very important HTML format for when you need to add links onto your webpage. You may already know or will learn that reciprocal linking is very important in promoting your website and obtaining a higher pagerank withrepparttar 118051 search engines. Sometimesrepparttar 118052 HTML code is provided for you and all you have to do is “copy and paste”repparttar 118053 code into your webpage. Often it is not, so you have to figure out how to putrepparttar 118054 information into HTML code yourself. Just learning this HTML command has been a timesaver for me.

I hope this article has helped you learn some basic HTML and how it can benefit you. I know, I know there are HTML text editors out there you can use and they can do all of this for you. I have used a couple myself, but I still like to know how to do things on my own. I bet you do too!  Sometimes it’s just faster and easier to do it yourself.

I’ve just given you some very basic formats in using HTML, but you can find a lot more resources and information about learning HTML onrepparttar 118055 internet. Just do a search and I’m sure you will be overwhelmed at what’s out there.
