Basic HTML: Review


We now know:
  1. How to use an editor like SimpleText to write HTML documents (figure to right)

  2. The basic structure of HTML documents:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>title of doc</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    text in body of doc
    <address>
    address info
    </body>
    </html>

  3. Attributes: <p align=right>

  4. Some HTML tags like
    <ol>
    <li> How to use an...
    <li> The basic...
    </ol>
    And
    <dl>
    <dt> The basic...
    <dd> <tt>&lt;html&gt;</tt><br>
    </dl>
    and so on... Select View -> Source in the Netscape window to see how these are used in this page!

  5. How to make links to other documents:
    <a href="document_URL">link text</a>
    Recall how to make URLs: some rules
    1. if the file is on your site and in the same folder (directory) as the one you're writing, just use its name: to link to the "basic HTML" page from this document, I write
      <a href="4_basichtml.html>a link</a>
      because the file is called "4_basichtml.html" and is in the same folder as this one.
    2. if the file is on your site and in a different folder (directory), give a path to it: to link to the image "simpletext.gif" (shown above), which is in a subdirectory (folder) below the one this document is in, I write
      <img src="images/simpletext.gif" alt="">
    3. if the file is on another web site, give the whole URL.
What's next? More Advanced HTML...
