HTML was created by Berners-Lee in late 1991 but "HTML 2.0" was the first standard HTML specification which was published in 1995.

TOPIC 1 : INTRODUCTION Session: 1 What is HTML? HTML is a markup language for describing web documents (web pages). HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language A markup language is a set of Markup tags HTML documents are described by HTML tags Each HTML tag describes different document content HTML EXAMPLE: A small HTML document: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Page Title</title> </head> <body> <h1>My First Heading</h1> <p>My first paragraph.</p> </body> </html> Example Explained:[/b] The DOCTYPE declaration defines the document type to be HTML The text between <html> and </html> describes an HTML document The text between <head> and </head> provides information about the document The text between <title> and </title> provides a title for the document The text between <body> and </body> describes the visible page content The text between <h1> and </h1> describes a heading The text between <p> and </p> describes a paragraph Using this description, a web browser can display a document with a heading and a paragraph. [i]HTML Tags: HTML tags are keywords (tag names) surrounded by angle brackets: <tagname>content</tagname> HTML tags normally come in pairs like <p> and </p> The first tag in a pair is the start tag, the second tag is the end tag The end tag is written like the start tag, but with a slash before the tag name >>> The start tag is often called the opening tag.

To display a document correctly, the browser must know both type and version. The doctype declaration is not case sensitive. All cases are acceptable: <!DOCTYPE html> <!DOCTYPE HTML> <!doctype html> <!Doctype Html> Common Declarations: HTML5 <!DOCTYPE html> HTML 4.01 <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> XHTML 1.0 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> >>> All tutorials and examples at this tutorial use HTML5.

Session 2 : HTML Editors: >>> Write HTML Using Notepad or TextEdit .HTML can be edited by using professional HTML editors like: .Microsoft WebMatrix .Sublime Text However, for learning HTML we recommend a text editor like Notepad (PC) or TextEdit (Mac).
