Html coding

What is HTML?
• Hypertext Markup Language
• Using HTML, text is formatted by wrapping it in a tag.
• The tags provide instructions to the browser (Safari, IE,
Firefox, Chrome, etc.) for how to render the text on screen.
<h2>Text wrapped in an heading level 2 tag looks like this</h2>
START TAG END TAG

3 Parts of an HTML Document
• An HTML document is divided into three sections:
1) Declarations 2) Head 3) Body
1
2
3

Document Type
• The <!DOCTYPE> declaration must be the very first
thing in your HTML document, before the <html> tag.
• The <!DOCTYPE> declaration is not an HTML tag; it is
an instruction to the web browser about what version of
HTML the page is written in.

Starting and Ending
your Code
• The first tag you need is:
<html>
*EVERYTHING INBETWEEN
</html>

GETTING STARTED
• OPEN UP NOTEPAD ON YOUR COMPUTERS
• IF YOU’RE WORKING FROM A MAC DOWNLOAD
TEXTWRANGLER
• Start writing your code:
<html>
</html>

Inside <html> </html>
There are 2 sections within the <html></html>tags:
• <head> </head>
The head tag contains information about the page
• <body> </body>
Actual content displayed to the user on the web page

Type that out in Notepad
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

Inside <head> </head>
<html>
<head>
<title>Title of my Page</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

Now Save it
1. Save as html file in a folder titled “HTML”
(type “.html” at end of file name if necessary)
2. OPEN FILE in WEB BROWSER-drag file into a new tab
3. You will see the TITLE on the tab (nothing on pg. yet)

Adding Content
• Inside <body> </body>
• HEADING TAGS
<h1>Heading 1</h1>
<h2>Heading 2</h2>
<h3>Heading 3</h3>
<h4>Heading 4</h4>
<h5>Heading 5</h5>

Creating Bulleted Lists
• To create a bullet pointed list we will use an
unordered list <ul></ul>
• The whole list is wrapped in UL tags and then all of the elements in the list are
wrapped in <li></li> tags
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<ul>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>

Creating Numbered Lists
• Instead of <ul></ul> you will use <ol></ol>
• The whole list is wrapped in OL tags and then all of the elements in the
list are wrapped in <li></li> tags
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<ol>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
</ol>
</body>
</html>

Creating Definition Lists
• <dl></dl>
• The whole list is wrapped in dl tags and then all of the elements in the list are
wrapped in either <dt></dt> or <dd></dd>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<dl>
<dt>term1</dt>
<dd>definition 1</dd>
<dt>term2</dt>
<dd>definition 2</dd>
</dl>
</body>
</html>

Adding an IMAGE
• Find an image on Google
• Click on it
• Click View Image (so the image is on it’s own page)
• Copy the URL
• Now we will add it to our code

Inserting Image from Web
<img src=“INSERTLINKHERE”/>
Resize the image (below)
<img src=“LINK” alt=“displaytext” style=“width: #; #;”>

Adding Image from Folder
• Create a file in your HTML folder titled IMAGES
• Save an image in the Images folder
• <img src=”images/TitleOfYourImage.jpg"
alt=”NameYourImage" style="width:#px; height:#px”/>

Add a video from
Youtube
Get the embed code from YOUTUBE
<iframe width=”#" height=”#" src=“YOUTUBE LINK HERE"
frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Open link in new tab
<a href="http://facebook.com" target="_blank">Click
Here<a/>

Links from Icons
<a href=”WEBSITELINK"> <img src=”ICON"alt="Youtube

The <span> Element
• The <span> element is often used as a container for
some text.
• The <span> element has no required attributes, but both
style and class are common.
• When used together with CSS, the <span> element can
be used to style parts of the text:

The <span> Element
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>My <span style="color:red">Important</span>
Heading</h1>
</body>
</html>

HTML Fonts
<h1 style="font-family:verdana;">This is a heading</h1>
<p style="font-family:courier;">This is a paragraph.</p>

HTML Text Size
<h1 style="font-size:300%;">This is a heading</h1>
<p style="font-size:160%;">This is a paragraph.</p>v

HTML Text Alignment
<h1 style="text-align:center;">Centered Heading</h1>
<p style="text-align:center;">Centered paragraph.</p>

HTML Background Color
• <!DOCTYPE html>
• <html>
• <body style="background-color:powderblue;">
• <h1>This is a heading</h1>
• <p>This is a paragraph.</p>
• </body>
• </html>

HTML Background Image from File
• YOU MUST HAVE YOUR FILE SAVES AS INDEX.HTML
<html>
<head> <title>Title of my Page</title>
<body background = ”images/watercolor.jpg">
*everything else
</body>
</html>

CSS
• CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets.
• CSS describes how HTML elements are to be displayed
on screen, paper, or in other media.
• CSS saves a lot of work. It can control the layout of
multiple web pages all at once.
CSS can be added to HTML elements in 3 ways:
• Inline - by using the style attribute in HTML elements
• Internal - by using a <style> element in the <head>
section
• External - by using an external CSS file

Inline CSS
• <h1 style="color:blue;">This is a Blue Heading</h1>

Internal CSS
• An internal CSS is used to define a style for a single HTML page.
• An internal CSS is defined in the <head> section of an HTML page, within a <style>
element:
<html>
<head>
<style>
body {background-color: powderblue;}
h1 {color: blue;}
p {color: red;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is a heading</h1>
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
</body>
</html>

CSS Background Image from Link
<html>
<head> <title>Title of my Page</title>
<style>
body {
background-image: url(”LINKHERE");
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

CSS Border
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p {
border: 1px solid powderblue;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

CSS Padding
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p {
padding: 30px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

CSS Margin
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p {
margin: 50px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

CSS id Attribute
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
#p01 {
color: blue;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p id="p01">I am different.</p>
</body>
</html>

CSS Class Attribute
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p.different {
color: red;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p class=”different">I am different.</p>
<p class=”different">I am different too.</p>
</body>
</html>

The <div> Element
• The <div> element is often used as a container for other
HTML elements.
• The <div> element has no required attributes, but both
style and class are common.
• When used together with CSS, the <div> element can be
used to style blocks of content:

The <div> Element
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<p>This is some text.</p>
<div style="color:#0000FF">
<h3>This is a heading in a div element</h3>
<p>This is some text in a div element.</p>
</div>
<p>This is some text.</p>
</body>
</html>

The <div> Element
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<div style="background-
color:black;color:white;padding:20px;">
<h2>London</h2>
<p>London is the capital city of England. It is the most
populous city in the United Kingdom, with a metropolitan
