  1. What is HTML?

HTML ( Hypertext Markup Language) is the code that is used to structure a web page and its content.

  1. What is HTML used for?

HTML is not a programming language; it is a markup language that defines the structure of your content. HTML consists of a series of elements , which you use to enclose, or wrap, different parts of the content to make it appear a certain way, or act a certain way.

  1. Why are we learning HTML?

Because we need to know how to build blocks and how to interact with existing smart contracts.

  1. What is an HTML tag?

In HTML, a “tag” is used for creating an element. The name of an HTML element is the name used in angle brackets such as <p> for paragraph. Note that the end tag’s name is preceded by a slash character, </p> , and that in empty elements, the end tag is neither required nor allowed. If attributes are not mentioned, default values are used in each case.

  1. What is the structure of an HTML tag?

The name of an HTML element is the name used in angle brackets such as <p> for paragraph. Note that the end tag’s name is preceded by a slash character, </p> , and that in empty elements, the end tag is neither required nor allowed.

  1. What is an attribute?

Attributes contain extra information about the element that you don’t want to appear in the actual content. Here, class is the attribute name and editor-note is the attribute value . The class attribute allows you to give the element a non-unique identifier that can be used to target it (and any other elements with the same class value) with style information and other things.

An attribute should always have the following:

  1. A space between it and the element name (or the previous attribute, if the element already has one or more attributes).
  2. The attribute name followed by an equal sign.
  3. The attribute value wrapped by opening and closing quotation marks.

Note : Simple attribute values that don’t contain ASCII whitespace (or any of the characters " ' ``` = < > ) can remain unquoted, but it is recommended that you quote all attribute values, as it makes the code more consistent and understandable.

  1. What is the anatomy of an HTML document?
My test page

My test image

Here, we have the following:

  • — doctype. It is a required preamble. In the mists of time, when HTML was young (around 1991/92), doctypes were meant to act as links to a set of rules that the HTML page had to follow to be considered good HTML, which could mean automatic error checking and other useful things. However these days, they don't do much and are basically just needed to make sure your document behaves correctly. That's all you need to know for now.
  • — the [](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/html) element. This element wraps all the content on the entire page and is sometimes known as the root element.
  • — the [](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/head) element. This element acts as a container for all the stuff you want to include on the HTML page that *isn't* the content you are showing to your page's viewers. This includes things like [keywords](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/keyword) and a page description that you want to appear in search results, CSS to style our content, character set declarations, and more.
  • — This element sets the character set your document should use to UTF-8 which includes most characters from the vast majority of written languages. Essentially, it can now handle any textual content you might put on it. There is no reason not to set this and it can help avoid some problems later on.
  • — the [](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/title) element. This sets the title of your page, which is the title that appears in the browser tab the page is loaded in. It is also used to describe the page when you bookmark/favorite it.
  • — the [](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/body) element. This contains *all* the content that you want to show to web users when they visit your page, whether that's text, images, videos, games, playable audio tracks, or whatever else.

  1. What is HTML?
    HTML is a markup language that is mostly used for designing the structure of your website.

  2. What is HTML used for?
    HTML is mostly used for web design. While you can not code apps with HTML, you can design the structure of the website that the app is connected to.

  3. Why are we learning HTML?
    Ivan mentioned in Ethereum 101 how DAPPS are a lot more than just the smart contract, they are also the web apps, and websites that the user interacts with to use a smart contract. If we truly want to learn how to make DAPPS we need to learn how to code web apps and how to design the websites with HTML so that the apps have the best GUI and experience.

  4. What is an HTML tag?
    Tags are a portion of the HTML Element that can structure text, images, and hyperlinks in a specified manner.

  5. What is the structure of an HTML tag?

  • Starts with the Opening Tag
  • Followed by the content
  • Wrapped up with the Closing tag
  • All of this together makes up an HTML Element

  1. What is an attribute?
    An Attribute is a part of the opening tag that is used to further classify and give information to an element without appearing in the content portion of the element.

  2. What is the anatomy of an HTML document?
    A document is structured in the following way:

- The <HTML> opening tag which begins the entire HTML element.
-  The <Head> Opening tag which begins the element for the Head or Title of the web page.
- The Charset Element which sets the characters used for the article/web page. IT should look like this <meta charset="(character set)">
- The title Element which should be the name of the title of the web page. This starts with the beginning tag <Title> followed by the content and closed with the </title> closing tag.
- After the title element is closed, you would want to close the the head element with the </head> closing tag

- Now that the Title element is closed you would want to open the Body element by using the <body> opening tag.
- The body will usually include different content like images or text. You would need to use different tags for both of these.
- After the content of the body is set you will want to close the body element with the </body> closing tag and finish off the HTML element with the </html> closing tag.

Hey guys! I have a question about HTML, so when we do Images it is pulling it directly from our PC. If I were to publish my code on a website, would it display this image without it also being hosted on the internet? Would I need to get some sort of web server to host all of the files I want to show up on a web page?

Hi @Johnknee,

When creating a website, you could either use a CDN (CDNs provide you with links to your stored assets) and attach links in your html or store it in your server and reference the image from your html to the server to fetch it out.

Hope this clears it out. Happy Learning!

  1. & 2. The HyperText Markup Language HTML is a code we use to structure websites and their content.

  2. The direct contact with the websites users happens in the front-end section. Knowing HTLM allow us to adapt our wanted presentation(s) to the best users experience during their visit on our sites.

  3. a tag is like hyperlink qualification

  4. A tag starts with a less than angle bracket, the qualifying term or letters, if closing tag here comes a forward slash, and it ends a more than angle bracket.

  5. Attribute is name and value of a tag

  6. Anatomy of HTML document is the body of this document like the right way of editing to write a HTML phrase.

Thank you so much, I think I already knew about CDN. However, for the hosting on a server part - when you choose a host to host your website, depending on the host, they can give you file space for your image files?

What is HTML?

HTML is NOT a programming language. It is a MARKUP language that
defines the structure of your content. It consists of a series of elements, which the coder can use to enclose, or wrap different parts of the content to make it appear or act in a certain way.

What is HTML used for?

HTML is used to help structure a web page and its contents. To sum up, it’s used for basic web development.

Why are we learning HTML?

We are learning HTML as a foundation to help us build basic websites and down the line we will take these static, boring, and basic websites we have created and add interactivity to them. Essentially, HTML will be our first stepping stone before getting deeper into the depths of programming.

What is an HTML tag?

A HTML tag is what you use to create an element. And enclosing the element with a tag it can make control what that element is told to do. For example, it can make a word or be a hyperlink to an image on another page. It can alter the look of the text by italicizing, or making the font bigger or smaller.

What is the structure of an HTML tag?

The opening tag - This consists of the name of the element, wrapped in opening and closing angle brackets. This states where the element begins or starts to take effect.

The closing tag - This is the same as the opening tag, except that it includes a forward slash before the element name. This will state where the element ends.

The content - This is where the content of the element would be

The element - The combination of the opening tag, the closing tag, and the content is what comprise the element.

What is an attribute?

An attribute will contain extra information about the element that you don’t want to appear in the actual content. And it should always have the following 3 things.

  1. A space between it and the element name
  2. The attribute name followed by an equal sign
  3. The attribute value wrapped by opening and closing quotation marks.

What is the anatomy of an HTML document?

- Is a required preamble. In the early days it was used to act as link to a set of rules that the HTML page would have to follow to be considered good HTML code. Presently, it doesn't do much and is only required to make sure the code of the document behaves correctly. - This element wraps up all the content that will be on the entire page. Sometimes referred to as the root element. - This element acts as a container for all the stuff you want to include on the HTML page that isn't the content you are showing on the page for viewers. Using keywords or a page description that you want to appear in search results are couple of examples of what kind of content you would put under this element. - This element sets the character set for the document to be using utf-8. This character set includes a vast majority of written languages, which essentially lets it be able to handle any textual content the coder might put in the document. It's a pretty character set standard to use because it help avoid some problems down the road. - This sets the title of the web page. Also will be what is used on a browser tab when it loads up and be the description when the page is bookmarked. - This will contain all the content that the coder wants to show to the web users when they visit the page. That content can be text, images, videos, games, playable audio, etc.

Hi @Johnknee ,

When you own your own server (by setting up yourself or use hosting services like AWS, Digital Ocean etc) you have space in it. You would store all your files there and fetch it whenever you need it.

Happy Learning! :smiley:
