Meet HTML, it doesn’t bite!

Basic Knowledge of HTML is very important if you want to start and run your own Internet Business. Even if you decide to use Site Builders, WEB templates or automated Blog posting, you have to learn how to control and adjust your ads, links or affiliate codes.
What is HTML? HTML is a text file containing markup tags that tell the Web browser how to display the WEB page. At first site it might look complicated but actually it is very simple.

Start Notepad (or SimpleTex on a Mac). Copy and paste the following text in Notepad. (Yes, HTML can be edited in simple text editors.)

----------------------------------
<html>
<body>
This is the simplest HTML Page!
</body>
</html>
----------------------------------

Save the file as mypage.html or page.html (or any other file name with .htm or .html extension). Now open the file with any WEB Browser. What do you see?

Now try this:

-----------------------------------------------------
<html>
<head>
<title>My WEB Page</title>
</head>
<body>
This is my first homepage. [ b ]This text is bold[ /b ]
</body>
</html>
-----------------------------------------------------

And this:

-----------------------------------------------------
<html>
<head>
<title>My Table</title>
</head>
<body>
This is a Table
<table>
<tr><td>Row-1 Cell-1</td><td>Row-1 Cell-2</td></tr>
<tr><td>Row-2 Cell-1</td><td>Row-2 Cell-2</td></tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
-----------------------------------------------------

As you can see HTML it is very simple. Everything is about tags. The document starts with the tag <html> and ends with </html>. The visible content of the page is placed between the <body> and </body> tags. Bolded text is placed between [ b ] and [ /b ] etc.
The <head> tags contain header information that it’s not displayed in the browser window. The text between the <title> tags is part of the head and it’s the title of the document. The title is displayed in your browser's caption (The top of the window).
Tables are widely used in HTML to arrange the page’s outlay. Table is defined with <table> and </table> tags. Row of a table is defined by <tr> and </tr> and a cell is defined by <td> and </td> tags.

As the number of the elements included in the document grows the HTML code looks more and more complicated. You can easily edit HTML files using a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor like FrontPage or Dreamweaver, instead of writing your markup tags in a plain text file. I personally prefer Dreamweaver where I use both, code and design view.

At W3Schools.com you can find the HTML tutorial where you can learn everything you need to know about HTML. It is free and easy to understand.
