  5. What is the structure of an HTML tag?

5-1. The opening tag: This consists of the name of the element (in this case, p), wrapped in opening and closing angle brackets . This states where the element begins or starts to take effect — in this case where the paragraph begins.

5-2. The closing tag: This is the same as the opening tag, except that it includes a forward slash before the element name. This states where the element ends — in this case where the paragraph ends. Failing to add a closing tag is one of the standard beginner errors and can lead to strange results.

5-3. The content: This is the content of the element, which in this case, is just text.

5-4. The element: The opening tag, the closing tag, and the content together comprise the element.

  1. What is an attribute?
    Attributes contain extra information about the element that you don’t want to appear in the actual content.

  2. What is the anatomy of an HTML document?

  • <!DOCTYPE html> — 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.

  • <html></html> — the [ <html> ] This element wraps all the content on the entire page and is sometimes known as the root element.

  • <head></head> — the [ <head> ]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] and a page description that you want to appear in search results, CSS to style our content, character set declarations, and more.

  • <meta charset="utf-8"> — 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.

  • <title></title> — the [ <title> ]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.

  • <body></body> — the [ <body> ]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.

5 A tag has usually an attribute inside and finishes with a closing
6 An attribute specifies additional properties and content included inside a tag.
7 An HTML page always starts with the tag , it has and where all the info needed to the website that won’t appear as a content (title, descriptions etc), and ends with the where all the content lies. You should ensure the content is contained within the tags and a tag should be closed.
