HTML & CSS To build a webpage you are going to need a few things • A text editor such as programs called Notepad++, Sublime text, Microsoft’s Visual Studio or ever just the notepad program that comes in Windows • A web browser like Google Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer For this tutorial you do not need any experience in HTML, CSS or any other web development experience. HTML stands for Hyper Text Mark-Up and is a scripting language used to make webpages. CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheet and works alongside HTML to style the website, I will talk about CSS later on in this tutorial. Making a Website First open the text editor you have chosen, in this tutorial I will be using Sublime text. Highlight and copy and paste the code below into the text editor I shall explain what’s happing within this shortly. Next create a folder on your desktop, I called this ‘Tutorial’, now save this as ‘index.html’ and then right click and open this in the browser you have chosen. It should look like this. Congratulations you have now made your first webpage. What’s going on In this section I will go back through the code you have just added and explain what it does as well as the basics. Every element within HTML uses tags, as you can see the code sample code I have provided, uses a head tag, link tag, title tag, body tag, h1 tag and a p tag. This tag is declaring the document is using the HTML language; this isn’t always necessary but is good practice to add it in to your page. Next we have the head tag. The head tag sits at the top of the document and is used to add Meta data, information such as the document title and author, link other documents such as CSS style sheets and JavaScript along wi... ... middle of paper ... ...d When using a style sheet it is important to remember that style sheets cascade, this means the style sheet you use can be overridden by and other style sheet or an inline style, an example of this is Bootstrap. Bootstrap is a CSS framework which essentially have styles, to make nice looking website, out the box. Bootstrap is linked to the document the same as a normal style sheet however it is vital to list bootstrap first because if you wanted to edit any styles they will be overridden as the web browser will always prioritise the most recent styles sheet and will cascade down the document and see that the last style sheet linked is the most recent styles.

When using the CSS, different techniques are combined to obtain maximum results. Of course, the program can be customized according to your personal needs. If you are looking for ways on how to start, here is a good sample training program for a week using the CSS:

The first step in developing the website will be selecting a name and uniform resource locator (URL) (Wallace, 2014). A name that is unique, but easy to remember is the best choice. The next step is to design the website. A hierarchical website architecture will influence consumer’s flow and decisions with professional aesthetics. We will want to use HTML 5 code to allow the ability to support different browsers with different

Precise placement of elements on a web page goes against the nature of HTML and can only be achieved to an approximation for pages that are able to adjust to different window sizes. Thus, 2-dimensional relationships between page elements are less important than 1-dimensional relationships (what's early on the page; what's later on the page).
Website would of course not exist without the invention of the internet, which came out in the 1960s. It was first only allowed to be used by the government so they could efficiently transfer data from one computer to another. It is said that the first website was made sometime in August of 1981. (Arandilla, 2011) The first free web browser program for public use was released in the 1990s and was called Mosaic. HTML is split up into five generations, HTML being the first version and HTML5 being the latest version out. HTML coding was first introduced in the early 1990s, but it didn’t give web developers a lot of room to be creative since they were limited by how slow the internet was when it first came out, also because it was brand new and so only basic coding was in HTML. When web developers began to start making their own coding to help them become more free and creative, so in order to have a universal HTML coding the next version came out being HTML 2. Now the internet is faster and more coding mean more control and creativity web designers can be. In 1995 HTML 3 was released and many new additions came out as well. Microsoft released Internet Explorer and designers can now input animated images called “.gif” in thei...
First, let’s tackle about HTML. HTML means HyperText Markup Language. It is the basic webpage language for creating websites. This HTML can include writings, pictures and many more by typing a code to describe each kinds of content so the webpage can identify what you want to show referring in your codes. When creating a webpage, all must start with the code “<!DOCTYPE html>” and adding an extension “.html” so that it will distinguished as a webpage when saving it as a file.
There were skeptics that said the language was a dud and would never catch on, but now more people are learning Java Script then ever before.JavaScript is used within HTML tags so that the page setup in already present when the Java Script starts to run. There are many different uses for Java Script on the Net. It can be used to make mail forms that a customer or person trying to input information can use. The program will allow the user to input information, then it will automatically send that info to a designated email address with the click of a button. It can also be used to put a password on a certain web page; a user trying to enter the page must then input the correct commands and passwords to enter the page.
The first most commonly used programming language is Hypertext Markup Language, or commonly known as HTML. HTML is the standard mark-up language used to create web pages. According to Shanon (2007), HTML is a language created for computer to read human command to develop websites. Human can view the websites by connecting to the Internet. HTML started as an easy way to transfer data between computers over the Internet. The earlier objective of designing HTML is for scientists and researches that do not have any experience
