Basic HTML Page

A web page needs only eight elements to be fully functional.
The format looks like this.

< html >
< head >
< title > Page Title < /title >
< /head >
< body >

The contents of the web page.

< /body >
< /html >

Type this in Notebook, and save as an .htm file. When opened in a web browser, only "The contents of the web page" will appear.

BREAKS

This is a lesson in breaks
These can occur
in the middle of text, as written

or any where else.
Note that there is no need to close a paragraph

This is italics

and this is bold

Paragraphs

Note this paragraph is centered with the <p align=" center " >

Options also include align right and align left.
Left align is the default if no align is specified.

Note also that the < DIV > tag accepts the align attributes
and can include more than just one paragraph.

HEADINGS

Heading 1

Heading 3

Heading 6

Horizontal Rules

Note the horizontal rule is normally centered

Note the width can be in pixels or in percent and this tag accepts the align attributes.

Note that without any attributes, the HR tag gives the line below.

Comments

Comments are put on the source page to help clarify what is on the page. See this page's source code for the two different ways to do it. This is the new way , but old browsers will not recognize it
