Master the Art of Coding: A Guided Tour of HTML Basics

HTML Basics Introduction

HTML, an acronym for Hyper Text Markup Language, is the foundation of all web content. It delivers structure to content on the web, allowing other web technologies to interact with it. This passage provides a comprehensive guide to the basics of HTML.

Let’s dive deep into the world of HTML.

What is HTML?

HTML originates from SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language). It uses tags to define elements within a document. Each element represents a different type of content available on the web. As an example, consider a simple text paragraph. The `

` tag in HTML encapsulates a block of text to denote paragraph content.

HTML Elements

An HTML element usually consists of a start tag and an end tag, encompassing the content. For instance, `

This is an example paragraph.

` is an HTML element. Here, `

` is the start tag, the text between the tags is the content, and `

` is the end tag. Not all elements follow this structure; some, identified as empty elements like ``, have only one tag.

Each HTML document begins with the document type declaration “, ensuring compatibility across browsers. It is composed of a head and a body. The “ element includes meta-information about the document and the “ element contains the main content of the document.

Anatomy of an HTML Page

Let’s consider a basic HTML document:

“`

Title of the document

The content of the document……

“`

The `

` element inside the “ designates the title of the document, which is displayed on the browser tab. The “ holds all the visible web page content, including text, images, and more. <p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><amp-img src="https://davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg" alt="html basics – Image 3" class="wp-image-2447 amp-wp-enforced-sizes i-amphtml-layout-intrinsic i-amphtml-layout-size-defined" width="1280" height="854" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?resize=600%2C400&ssl=1 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" layout="intrinsic" disable-inline-width="" i-amphtml-layout="intrinsic"><i-amphtml-sizer slot="i-amphtml-svc" class="i-amphtml-sizer"><img alt="" aria-hidden="true" class="i-amphtml-intrinsic-sizer" role="presentation" src="data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyBoZWlnaHQ9Ijg1NCIgd2lkdGg9IjEyODAiIHhtbG5zPSJodHRwOi8vd3d3LnczLm9yZy8yMDAwL3N2ZyIgdmVyc2lvbj0iMS4xIi8+"></i-amphtml-sizer><noscript><img decoding="async" src="https://davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg" alt="html basics – Image 3" width="1280" height="854" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/davidellinger.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/gb397d8bcde1b0d0470e40ac2e6db7e5fbb73492260f6abddf52f9b27afe13f05e4e8b793041047e43b2d751fda9a45a7a87bbdc7d34eeff788ad35661bb6585b_1280.jpg?resize=600%2C400&ssl=1 600w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px"></noscript></amp-img></figure> </p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">HTML Attributes</h2> <p>HTML elements can contain attributes that offer additional information. For example, the key attribute in the image element is ‘src’ (source). By assigning a source file to the ‘src’ attribute, you can display an image on your website. The format for defining an attribute is: `attribute_name=”value”`.

Though simple to learn, it sets the foundation for much of what we see on the internet. Remember, HTML gives structure to the web, turning plain text into a versatile, interactive environment. As you explore further, concepts like CSS and JavaScript will build on this HTML base, enhancing your ability to create more complex and functional web designs.</p> <div class="sharedaddy
