Table of contents:
Think how to create an HTML page? For this you need to spend a few hours and you will know the basics of HTML. And create your first page within 5 minutes.
HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. In translation it means "hypertext markup language". It is important to understand that HTML is not a programming language, namely markup of the site.
All modern browsers are able to recognize it. Then they display the information in a convenient form for the user in advance as was intended by the author.
This language uses special tags. Each tag performs its function. A lot of them. Ideally, you should learn all. But for the novice the basic knowledge is enough.
HTML Basics
Before you can create an HTML page, you need to know what it is. In this language there are two concepts: element and tag.
In order to specify where this element starts and closes, it uses an opening and closing tag. It looks like this.
<start tag>content</a closing tag>
As you can see, an opening and closing tag differ only in "/".
The Entire HTML document is a collection of these elements. There are certain requirements to the structure of the document. All page content should be between the two tags <html> and </html>. When you write code, make it a habit to immediately put opening and closing tag.
Also remember that the structure of the HTML language has its own hierarchy. Otherwise, it is called nesting. The HTML tag is the most important, because all the others are inside it.
HTML has two child elements:
- <head> ... </head>;
- <body> .. </body>.
In the HEAD block specifies various service information. This information in the browser is not displayed. For example, guidance for developers for any software for robots and many more.
Most importantly - there is no content.
In the BODY section specifies the contents of the document to be shown to the user.
Learn to make open and closed tags as it can only be 10 nested elements. In addition, for convenience, it is recommended that nested tags to do with the indentation. For example, here tak.
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Doing So likewise, the tags were on the same level, and the child is "inside". So much easier to understand and find the right piece of code. Otherwise you can get confused. But to save space it tags head and body can be done without padding. To do so, everyone else didn't have an extra indent. Everything else it is advisable to separate.

The Headers are different levels. This creates a hierarchy in the text. Equivalent volumes, chapters, sections in books.
There are only 6 levels. The main header is indicated by <h1>Title</h1>. From the point of view of promotion of the page the text in the h1 tags and title must match. Moreover, the h1 from an aesthetic point of view there should be only one. But this does not mean that the browser will not process the subsequent h1. You can make them all you want, but this is undesirable.
For sub-headings use tags from h2 to h6. They are so - called the title of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth level. So are the nesting information and the division into categories.
