Hi @Gae_mon,

My understanding is that ASCII keys are only for encoding characters — which is still text. Sorry, if I didn’t make myself very clear, but I meant that HTML tags can enclose a much wider range of content than just text/characters e.g. images, videos etc.

Also, have another quick look at your updated anatomy: most of the closing tags have back slashes instead of forward slashes :wink:… and <meta> elements should be nested within the <head> element. Other than that it looks good :ok_hand:

  1. What is HTML? Hypertext Markup Language. The code used to structure a web page and its content.

  2. What is HTML used for? It is used to define the structure of content using a series of elements.

  3. Why are we learning HTML? HTML Programming is a requirement for building web pages.

  4. What is an HTML tag? A tag in HTML is used for creating an element. There are Opening Tags and Closing tags, featuring the name of the element in the middle.

  5. What is the structure of an HTML tag? content

  6. What is an attribute? An attribute is any additional information about the element but not visible as actual content. An attribute is defined by a Name and a Value.

  7. What is the anatomy of an HTML document? when attempting to write out the anatomy, it seems that the “<” opening tag is making the rest of the element invisible once saved in this box. Therefore unable to write it as it would be coded but the anatomy consists of; Doctype -HTML-head-Meta charset=“utf-8” - title - body

Hi @C_P!
…and welcome to the course!

Yes, because it needs to be formatted:

To format your code in your forum posts, click on the </> icon in the menu at the top of the text editor. If you are on a new line that will give you 2 sets of 3 back ticks for a code block…
```
```
If you now input your code between these, you will end up with it nicely formatted.
To format a piece of code in-line you just need to do the same thing and you will get 2 single back ticks to wrap your code in.

I can see you had the same problem with Q5…

To practise formatting in these posts (you’ll need it a lot throughout the course, especially for posting your programming exercise solutions) either edit your original post (and let us know when you’ve done it) or submit a new post just with Q5 & 7 :slightly_smiling_face:

  1. it is a markup language that defines the structure of your content.
  2. you use to enclose, or wrap, different parts of the content to make it appear a certain way, or act a certain way.
  3. gives us a basic understanding of HTML and its functions. It will help us with web development and blockchain in the future.
  4. 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.
    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. Might this be the structure

  6. Attributes contain extra information about the element that you don’t want to appear in the actual content.
  7. You have the opening and closing tags with the content (text) and element within this.
