HTML FULL FORM

The full form of HTML is Hyper(H)Text(T) Markup(M) Language(L).

Here’s a detailed explanation of each component:

  1. HyperText:
  • “HyperText” refers to the method of linking text (or other content) to other documents or web pages via hyperlinks.
  • It allows users to navigate(forward and backward) between pages on the web by clicking on linked elements.
  • Think of it like a web of interconnected content—this is what gives the World Wide Web(www) its structure.
  1. Markup:
  • “Markup” refers to the use of a special set of tags and symbols to define elements within a document(describe the structure and presentation).
  • These tags tell the web browser how to display the content—such as headings, paragraphs, images, and links.
  • HTML tags(singular(<br>) and paired(<html>   </html>)) are enclosed in angle brackets, like <h1>, <p>, <a>, etc.
  1. Language:
  • “Language” means that HTML has its own syntax and rules used to write and interpret web documents.
  • It’s not a programming language(like C, C++) in the traditional sense (it doesn’t have logic or variables), but it is a declarative language used to structure content on the web.

Summary:

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard language used to create and design web pages(a web page is a document written in HTML code that is displayed in a web browser, like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari). It’s a single file or content view that a user can access on the internet or locally. It provides the basic structure of web pages by using a system of tags(singular<br>, paired<html>  </html>) and attributes ( < p align = right>(here, align is the attribute of tag p)).

 

Here’s a basic example of an HTML document, with explanations for each part:

 

<html>

<head>

<title>My First Web Page</title>

</head>

<body>

<h1>Welcome to My Website</h1>

<p>This is my Ist HTML page using paragraph tag(<p>). I’m learning how to use HTML!</p>

<a href=”https://xcnotes.com/”>Visit Example Website</a>

</body>

</html>

Explanation of the code:

 

  • <html>
    The root element (first tag(paired tag<html>  </html>))that contains the entire HTML document.
  • <head>
    Contains meta-information(title and links to stylesheet or script) about the document.
  • <title>
    Sets the title(<head><title>first web page</title></head>) of the web page ((name of the web page)shown in the browser tab).
  • <body>
    Contains the visible content of the web page.
  • <h1>
    A heading tag. h1(h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6) is the largest and most important heading.

    A paragraph tag. Used to display blocks of text.
  • <a href=”https://xcnotes.com/”>
