Email protocol • Your name • Your class & day • A pertinent subject line • Please do not SHOUT at me unless you mean it. • I expect email – I expect questions • If I don’t reply in 24 hours, please resend.

FTP server information • stweb.ccv.edu • Your user name and password • Wednesday class is CIS-2220-VU02 • Monday class is CIS-2220-VU04 • You should have a folder inside of that.
Code • Code is plain text • How do you see the code on a web page? • View > Source • What is a tag? < element>
HTML open (start) tag • Opening bracket • Tag name • Attributes • Closing bracket <h1>
HTML close (end ) tag • Opening bracket • Tag name • Attributes • / • Closing bracket • (there are some exceptions, we’ll see them soon) </h1>
HTML element • Open tag, content, close tag <p> This is the content of the paragraph element. </p>
There are “empty elements” • They don’t have the closing tag. • Also called “self closing” tags • We’ll learn about these later. • <img /> • <br /> • <hr /> • <input />
There are “attributes” • Attributes define a property of a tag • name=“value” • Goes within the start tag • Can have multiple attributes in one tag <font color=“red” face=“arial”> <p align=“center”>
A basic web page template <html> <head> <title> The title of your web page</title> </head> <body> </body> </html> All visible content of your page goes between the two body tags, in HTML elements
Process • Write your code in a text editor (Notepad) • SAVE AS filename.html • Create a basic web page template and reuse it over and over.
Tips to make your coding life easier • Organize your files first • Consistency • Write the closing tag immediately after you write the opening tag. • Indent • Know where you are saving things • Don’t have lots of windows open at once
More tips/class policies • small letters • no spaces in file names, use a hyphen to separate things for clarity • save as .html
Copy & Paste is your friend • Doesn’t mean to copy someone else’s code • It helps you avoid typos • Make yourself a standard template and use it over and over.
