HTML Reading Assignment

  1. HTML is an acronym for H yper t ext M arkup L anguage, which as the name implies is a markup language, not (as sometimes mistakenly believe) a programming language
  2. HTML is used for structuring web pages and its content (which could be e.g. text, images, forms, buttons etc.)
  3. HTML is the basic language for creating a website, and for our future DApps we will certainly need such a website (“front-end”) that interacts with the smart contracts behind
  4. HTML tags are the building blocks for describing HTML elements. There are opening and closing tags, see next question.
  5. HTML tags are followed by content and a corresponding closing tag, but there are also tags (like <img> ) where there is no content and the closing tag is not needed.
  6. Attributes can be specified inside opening tags and contain extra-information about the element that is not part of the content.
  7. A HTML document consists of:
  • <!DOCTYPE html> Doctype (historical artefact)
  • <html> element (enclosing the whole HTML document)
  • <head> element, containing all content not to be shown [inside <html> element]
  • <meta charset="..."> element, describing the used character set (e.g. UTF-8) [inside <head> element]
  • <title> element, setting the title of the page [inside <head> element]
  • <body> element, containing all the content to be shown [inside <html> element]
