Coding & HTML Communications Technology III Mr. Bundy
HTML Syntax • HTML code is written in brackets <> and called “tags”. • If you <open> a tag, it must be </closed>. • These four tags are always included in a HTML document: • <html></html> • <head></head> • <title></title> • <body></body>
HTML Syntax • All content is written in between tags. <body>All of your words go here</body> • Nesting:Tags must be closed in the reverse order of when they were opened. Tabs help with organization.<html><body> Content</body></html>
HTML Syntax • Any code modifiers must be written in quotes. <font size=“12” color=“white” face=“Arial”> • Any missed quotes or tag arrows will result in the computer recording a “syntax error” and your code will not appear correct.
