Webpage Basics
Web pages are typically created by the markup language called HTML.
Html is the code your browser reads when it accesses a website like Yahoo and is simply a bunch of tags that position text and graphics around the browser window to create a web page.
This is similar to how a program like Microsoft Word displays text from top to bottom and from left to right.
Web pages can be created using html editors like Microsoft Frontpage and Mediamatrix Dreamweaver.
You can design a page similarly to how you would produce a Word document.
Html pages can also be created by hand using any text editors such as Microsoft Notepad.
For example, to make a word bold you have to put the tag <b> at the beginning of the word and the tag </b> at the end of the word.
To make the word semibase bold, the HTML code would look like this:
<b>semibase</b>
Once the code is displayed in your browser it will appear like this:
semibase (notice how the <b> and </b> are gone)
We will return to a more detail explanation of HTML code works later in this CD.
