  1. HTML - Hypertext Markup Language - is a “markup language” and not really a programmig language, since it doesn’t have functions and logic in a way that programming languages do. It is the standard markup language for creating web pages and the html elements tell the brower how to display a webpage contents.

  2. HTML is used to structure and define the overall appearance and layout of webpages.

  3. We are learning HTML to be able to make webpages in which to put JavaScript code that will enable us to (among other things), interact with blockchain and smart contracts.

  4. HTML is a tag based language, where the different tags, enclosed in angle brackets <>, create elements that is used to describe (to the browser) the layout and overall looks of a webpage. And element starts with an opening tag <>, and ends with a closing tag. </>

  5. The tags are what makes up the different elements in html. They start with an opening tag, for example the bold tag (<)b(>) and ends with the corresponding closing tag (</)b(>). In between the tags are the content of that element. An example (without the parentheses): The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks. Some tags however, have no end tags. These tags are sometimes called empty tags. An example is the break (<)br(>) element, which inserts line breaks.

  6. HTML elements can have attributes that provide additional information to the browser about the element, kind of like the elements specific details. For example, the href-attribute contains the URL of a link to another page:
    (<)a href=“http://www.youtube.com/user/LiljeqvistIvan”(>)Visit Ivan on Tech on Youtube!(<)/a(>)

The same element, without parentheses: Visit Ivan on Tech on Youtube!

  1. The typical anatomy of a basic HTML document goes like this: Its start with the (<)!DOCTYPE html(>) tag, which states that the document is a standard HTML5 webpage. This is then followed with the (<)html(>) root element. This tag is where the html really begins. If we consider that the html document has a tree-like structure, this is the root from which everything else sprouts. The HTML tag should always include a language attribute to tell the browser which language is being used in the page
    (<)html lang=”en”(>) (<)/html(>). A basic HTML element (and page) also nests a (<)head(>),(<)body(>), and sometimes a (<)footer(>). The head tag section of a html-document is primarily informational. It tells both the user and the browser things about the webpage such as title, description, author, style and charset. This is also where you load important external resources, such as a CSS stylesheets or scripts. The body of an html page is the most important one, and is often where you spend the most amount of time. This is where all the content of the webpage goes. Text, links, pictures, videos, and so on. The last element is typically a footer, which contains things like a copyright notice, links to related documents, adress information about the owner of the site and links to administrative things like privacy policies and the websites terms of service.

Hi @DeezSats!
… and welcome to the course!

If you format your code (including HTML tags) before you post it here in the forum, you shouldn’t have this problem. To do this, click on the </> icon in the menu at the top of the text editor. You will then see 2 sets of 3 back ticks.
```
```
If you now input your code between these, you will end up with it nicely formatted, which is then also easier for you to adjust and organise with the correct spacing and indentation etc

Would be good if you could edit your post to include what was missing :slight_smile:

HTML is Hypertext Markup Language, it is not a programming language, but a markup language! It is used to define the structure of the content on your web page. We are learning this so that we are able to show others on the internet our knowledge of blockchain. Tags are how you define the document and outline its elements. The HTML tag is necessary in any HTML document to make sure it behaves correctly. … . You use attributes to embed extra media into your page. Every HTML document contains at least head elements, which provide the page title and general page formatting commands and body elements, which are where you put the main HTML text.
