The Fundamentals of Tags and Attributes • There are two basic parts to an HTML tag: the opening tag and the closing tag; they are always enclosed within angle brackets (<>). • <b>Course Technology</b> • The <b> tag tells the browser to bold the subsequent text until the browser finds a closing tag </b> • These attributes provide a means of altering the tag in some way • The idattribute is used to provide a unique identifier for the tag within that document • Standards are maintained by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) ASP.NET 2.0, Third Edition
HTML Structure All tags nested within the (html></html>) tags Heading Section identified by (<head></head>) • Title tags (<title></title>) identify the page name in the title bar, in the history list, and in the favorites list within the browser application • Style sheets within the <style> tags or external linked style sheets <link> format the contents of the page <link type="text/css" href="ch_sample1.css" /> • Meta tag (<meta />) can be used to force the browser to identify keywords and other global values, reload the page, and identify the character encoding scheme <meta name="keywords" content="Course Technology, ASP.NET " /> ASP.NET 2.0, Third Edition
HTML Structure (continued) Body Section identified by (<body></body >) • The bgColor attribute is used to change the color of the background <body bgColor="black"> • Color value can also be identified by the hexadecimal number associated with the color <body bgcolor= "#000000" text= "#33CC00" background= "images/disk.gif" link= "#FFFFFF" vlink= "#FFFF66“ alink= "#FF0066"> ASP.NET 2.0, Third Edition

Tags for Elements Other than Pure Text • Table tags (<table></table>) • Attributes set table width, height, border, background color and image • Table row tags (<tr></tr>) define the row • Table cell tags (<td></td>) define the cell • Table heading cell tags (<th></th>) display contents bolded • Table heading, body, footer tags (<thead></thead>, <tbody></tbody>, <tfoot></tfoot>) identify table header, body, and footer sections, respectively • Caption tag (<caption></caption>) • Colgroup tags (<colgroup></colgroup>) – parent tags for column tags (<col></col>) ASP.NET 2.0, Third Edition
Tags for Elements Other than Pure Text (continued) • Form tags (<form></form>) contain elements, such as text boxes, radio buttons, check boxes, and drop-down lists • Unordered list tags (<ul></ul) • Ordered list tags (<ol></ol) • List item tags (<li></li>) • Image tag (<img/>) – graphic image • Anchor tags (<a></a>) – creates a hyperlink <a href="url/pagename.htm" target="_blank"> Displayed content goes here.</a> • Bookmarks specify a location within a web page <a name = "top"> <a id = "top"> • Named markup represents a character entity within the web page • Ampersand (&) represented by & • Apostrophe (‘) represented by ' ASP.NET 2.0, Third Edition
