HTML stand for hyper text markup language

it is a markup not a programming it mean html does not think, calculate , make decision if website were a human than

• HTML = skeleton (structure)

• CSS = skin (design)

• JavaScript = muscle(behavior)

it is used to structure the content of web pages , back in days websiter are just rcord of text that conatain link , so they needded to build something

1. that looks good

2. particulat structure

3. and have a capacity of linking pages easikly

so they decide too made it called HTML

without html, a webpage would be just unorganised text with no proper layout or hierarchy

HTML Tag

it is a specuial keynoar writ\ten insaide a angle braket( < > )that tells the browser how to trat content.

most Html has three parts

1. opening tag → starts thre element (<p>)

2. content → the actual text

3. closing tag → end eith the element (</p>)

it is basically kike a box

• opening tag = opening the box

• content = what you put inside

• closing tag = closing the box

HTML element

it is complete structure containing all three opening tag , content and closing tag comining together

so tag is s part and element are a whole things

Example:

<p>Hello</p>

This entire line is one HTML element, not just the <p>.

Paragraph element

<p>This is a paragraph</p>

Used for normal text content.

Heading element

<h1>Main Title</h1>

Used for important page headings. it goes from h1 to h6

Heading element

<h1>Main Title</h1>

Used for important page headings.

it is type or rectangle area where elements are plaed

Self-Closing (Void) Elements

there are some tag that do not have closing tagh as they do not conataong something in between them thats why they are called this

they only perform a single action , display somethings or insert or break

<br> → for line break

<img src” ”> → for display an image

Block-Level vs Inline Elements

Block level :

it is like pressing enter on your keyboard first sentence , enter press automatically . second sentence starts below

so block mean new line every time

Example:

<p>I am learning HTML</p>
<p>I like coding</p>

inline element :

it is like a normal line consider a word as element a word is written continuouslu in a line , everything stay on one line , sentendce does not break

this is a inline behaviour

Example:

I am <span>learning</span> HTML

Inspect a wesite

how to access :

step 1 → uoen website

step 2 → right click anywhere and click on inspect

it basically let you see the real runtime HTML that browser is rendering , not just what you are typed in your editor. by inspecting we can learn:

1. how tags are actually nested

2. understan inline and bloak element visuallly

3. real time stucture of website

it is suggested for every dev he should have inspect element.
