Introduction to HTML - An HTML Document

Overview / Basic Commands

What does a webpage look like?

A webpage is made of HTML commands. The basic structure of a webpage is:

<HTML>

<HEAD>
<TITLE> This is my first title </TITLE>
</HEAD>

<BODY>
This is where all my other tags will go to makeup the BODY.
</BODY>

</HTML>

As you can see, each of the commands are enclosed with angle brackets. These commands are called Tags and are the basis for HTML. Each Tag has a command, such as <TITLE>, and a close command, such as </TITLE>. In HTML, each command has an 'open' and a 'close' to signify the beginning and ending of the command. The stuff inside the <TITLE> tag and the </TITLE> tag appears at the top of your browser window. For example, on this page the title is "Learnthat.com HTML Introduction - Learn what makes up webpages Tutorial".

Every page has a begin HTML command, <HTML>. Next is the <HEAD> tag which opens the HEAD area of the page which is not displayed in your browser, but commands like <TITLE> appear at the top of your screen. Inside the <BODY> tags appears the stuff that is shown on the page. All of the scripts, tables, tags, and text on this page are contained inside a set of <BODY> </BODY> tags. Finally, a close HTML command, </HTML>, tells the browser where the HTML ends.

Now you've learned the basic scructure of a webpage, let's move on to learning some basic HTML commands and how they fit into your webpage.
