  1. What is the structure of an HTML tag?

  1. What is the anatomy of an HTML document?
  • — the doctype. It is 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 element. This element wraps all the content on the entire page and is sometimes known as the root element.
  • — the 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 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 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 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.strong text

    !DOCTYPE HTML is a historical artifact that needs to be included for everything else to work right.

HTML is the root element that wraps all the content on the page.
head element acts as a container for everything to be included on the HTML page, that isn’t the content, such as keywords, page description that appears in search results etc.
body contains all the content that displays on the page, including text, images, videos, games, playable audio tracks etc.

title sets the title of the page that appears in the browser tab. It also describes the bookmark text.

meta charset=“utf-8” specifies the character set for the document to UTF-8, which includes characters from the vast majority of written languages thus allowing the page to handle any text content. Setting this avoids unnecessary text deciphering issues.

  3. We’re learning it for practical reasons. First, it’s a good entrance into coding for newbies wanting a starting point. Secondly, it’s probably useful to learn how to create a GUI for our smart contracts later on.

  4. It’s the enclosure of an element. An element starts with the name of the element wrapped in opening and closing angle brackets (opening tag). The closing tag looks the same, but with a / before the name inside the brackets. The tags marks the beginning and the end of an element.

  5. See no. 4.

  6. An attribute contains information about the element that you don’t want to show the user of the web page.

  7. You have the DOCTYPE (mostly for historical reasons), the html that wrapps all content of the page, the head contains content that you don’t want to show the user, the meta charset sets the character set that the page shall use, the title sets the titel of the page and the body contains all the content that you want to show the users.

*This is a revised(edited) assignment. The previous answer I submitted blanked out the elements because of the double arrow brackets. I eliminated some of the brackets, just to show examples of the elements. I’m suspecting the double arrow encapsulated elements interacted with the forum code. :sweat_smile: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
