What is HTML? • HypertextMarkup Language • Hypertext:Text with links to other documents • A key technology for the Web • A simple language for specifying document structure and content • "page description language" • Derived from the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) language system
What is Markup? • Markup languages have special elements that mark formatting or semantics • The marks are ASCII text "inserted" into the ASCII text representing document content • Unlike programming languages, data is primary • HTMLAn <emph>important</emph> concept • LaTeX An {\em important} concept
HTML Markup(Tags) • tag ::= < tagnameattribute-pair* > <bodybgcolor="white"> • <tagname>: opening (start) tag : <TITLE> • </tagname>: closing (end) tag: </TITLE> • <tagname/>: self-closing tag: <imgattributes /> • Core attributes can be used for most of elements • id: A unique identifier to element starting with "A-Z" • class: Assign a class to the element, multiple classes are allowed • title: Assign a title, the behavior depends on element
Tag and Element syntax (2) • Tags are mostly case-insensitive • exception: some attribute values • End tags • element-name is preceded by a slash / • never have attributes
Practicing HTML! • If you make a mistake in HTML… • you will not bomb or crash; your web page just won't look right. It is easy to correct the code. • What do you need? • A web browser • Internet Explorer • Mozilla FireFox • SeaMonkey • Opera • A text editor • Notepad • Notepad++ • UltraEdit
HTML Structure • Minimal legal HTML document: <html> <head> <title> Test Document</title> </head> <body> <!– This is a comment Content goes here --> </body> </html>
HTML has two parts • HTML document start-end: <html> </html> • Page header: <head> </head>:Information about the document • TITLE: appears in title bar • META: description of your page • Page body: <body> </body>:visible content of document • Comments: Starts by <!--, end by -->
First HTML Example 5 <!-- Fig. 4.1: main.html --> 6 <!-- Our first Web page --> 7 8 <html> 9 <head> 10 <title>Internet and WWW How to Program - Welcome</title> 11 </head> 12 13 <body> 14 <p>Welcome to XHTML!</p> 15 </body> 16 </html>
Headers/Headings • Headers/Headings • Six levels (H1… H6) <h1>Most major heading</h1> <h2>Next level heading</h2> <h3>Next level heading</h3> <h4>Next level heading</h4> <h5>Next level heading</h5> <h6>Least major heading</h6>
Headers/Headings (example) 5 <!-- Fig. 4.4: header.html --> 6 8 <html > 9 <head> 10 <title>Internet and WWW How to Program - Headers</title> 11 </head> 12 13 <body> 14 15 <h1>Level 1 Header</h1> 16 <h2>Level 2 header</h2> 17 <h3>Level 3 header</h3> 18 <h4>Level 4 header</h4> 19 <h5>Level 5 header</h5> 20 <h6>Level 6 header</h6> 21 22 </body> 23 </html>
Linking • Anchor <a>: basis of hypertext links • defines a section of linkable material • <HREF>: URL of link target Example <a href="http://www.somewhere.com/#aTarget">A Link to Somewhere Else</a>
15 <h1>Here are my favorite sites</h1> 16 17 <p><strong>Click a name to go to that page.</strong></p> 18 19 <!-- Create four text hyperlinks --> 20 <p><a href = "http://www.deitel.com">Deitel</a></p> 21 22 <p><a href = "http://www.prenhall.com">Prentice Hall</a></p> 23 24 <p><a href = "http://www.yahoo.com">Yahoo!</a></p>

Click the address and your browser will 21 open an e-mail message and address it to me. 22 </p> 23 </body> 24 </html>
Lists • Lists • Simple lists all use "list items" <LI>(end optional) • Unordered lists <UL></UL> • Ordered lists <OL></OL> • Definition lists • Definition list <Dl></DL> • Definition term<DT> • Definition data <DD> Lists of all types may be nested -- Don’t forget the end tags!

Block Structure • Paragraph: <p> (end optional) • <BR> forced line break • <HR> horizontal rule • separate content in an HTML page • <PRE> preformatted text • Preserves spaces and line breaks • To add space:
Presentation Phrase Structure • Whitespace is collapsed • Font changes • Bold<B> , italic<I> , Teletype text<TT> • <FONT> specifies font to use, deprecated • <font size="3" color="red">This is some text!</font><font size="1" color="blue">This is some text!</font><font face="arial" color="red">This is some text!</font> • Emphasis<EM>, <STRONG>, <CODE>, etc. • Subscripts <SUB> and superscripts <SUP> This is some text! This is some text! This is some text!

Tables • <TABLE>: Intended for display of tabular data • Widely used for formatting control • <TR>: table row • <TD>: table data (individual cell data) • <TH>: Table Header cell in a table. usually bold.
Framesets and Frames • display more than one Web page/HTML document in the same browser window. • The browser window is divided into multiple regions, or frames • Each frame displays a unique web page • Each frame is independent of the others
Frame Example <HTML> <HEAD><title> The first frames page</title> </HEAD> <FRAMESET rows =20%,60%,20%><FRAMENAME = “myTopFrame" SRC="top.html"><FRAMENAME = “myMiddleFrame" SRC="middle.html"><FRAMENAME = “myBottomFrame" SRC="bottom.html"> </FRAMESET> </HTML>
Frames (cont.) • FRAMESET elements define a collection of frames • A 2x2 grid. <FRAMESET rows="80%,20%"cols="20%,80%" > • Three columns: the second has a fixed width of 250 pixels (useful, for example, to hold an image with a known size). The first receives 25% of the remaining space and the third 75% of the remaining space. <FRAMESETcols="1*,250,3*"> ...the rest of the definition... </FRAMESET> • FRAME elements specify the source of each frame’s content • in left-to-right, top-to-bottom order
Linking in frames • Each frame may contain hyperlinks • Each hyperlink can be targeted to different frame or a new window • <a href="foo.html" target="myframe"> • _blank opens a new, unnamed window • _self opens the link in the current frame (default) • _top opens the link in the full, unframed browser window (throws you out of the frameset) • _parent opens the link in the immediate frameset parent (calling frame)
...HTML Forms • <form>: Just another kind of HTML tag • HTML forms are used to create (rather primitive) GUIs on the Web pages • Purpose: to ask the user for information to sent back to the server • A form is an area that can contain the form elements Example <form parameters> ...form elements... </form>
HTML Forms • Form elements: buttons,checkboxes,textfields,radiobuttons,drop-downmenus. • A form usually contains a Submit button to send the information filled in the form elements to the server
The <form> tag… • The<form arguments>...</form> tag encloses form elements (and probably other HTML tags as well) • The arguments of form tell what to do with the user input • action="url"(required) • Specifies where to send the data when theSubmitbutton is clicked
...The <form> tag • method="get"(default) • Form data is sent as a URL with?form_datainfo appended to the end • method="post" • Form data is sent in the body of the URL request
The <form> tag • target="target" • where to open the page sent as a result of the request • target= _blank open in a new window • target= _topuse the same window
The <input> tag • Most, but not all of the form elements • <input …>, • with a type="..."argument to tell which kind of element it is. • type can be text, checkbox, radio, password, hidden, submit, reset, button, file,or image • Other common input tag arguments include: • name: the name of the element • value: the "value" of the element
Text, Textarea, password A text field: <input type="text"name="textfield"value="with an initial value"> A multi-line text field <textareaname="textarea" cols="24" rows="2">Hello</textarea> A password field: <inputtype="password"name="textfield3"value="secret">
Buttons • A submit button:<inputtype="submit" name=“mysubmit" value="Submit"> • A reset button:<inputtype="reset" name=“myreset" value="Reset"> • A plain button:<inputtype="button" name=“mypushmebutton" value="Push Me">
Checkboxes • A checkbox: <inputtype="checkbox" name="checkbox" value=“val1" checked> • type: "checkbox" • name: used to refer this form element • value: value to be returned when the element is checked • To draw border around a group of components • <fieldset> </fieldset> • To assign name to the group • <legend> </legend> • Note that there is no text associated with the checkbox — you have to supply text in the surrounding HTML
