HTML Structure

HTML is comprised of “elements” and “tags”• Begins with <html> and ends with </html>

Elements (tags) are nested one inside another:

Tags have attributes:

HTML describes structure using two main sections: <head> and <body>

5

<html> <head></head> <body></body> </html>

<img src="logo.jpg" alt="logo" />




HTML Code Formatting

The HTML source code should be formatted to increase readability and facilitate debugging

• Every block element should start on a new line• Every nested (block) element should be indented• Browsers ignore multiple whitespaces in the page source, so formatting is harmless

For performance reasons, formatting can be sacrificed

Block and Inline Elements

Block elements add a line break before and after them• <div> is a block element• Other block elements are <table>, <hr>, headings, lists, <p> and etc.

Inline elements don’t break the text before and after them• <span> is an inline element• Most HTML elements are inline, e.g. <a>

21




The <div> Tag

<div> creates logical divisions within a page Block style element Used with CSS Example:

22

<div style="font-size:24px; color:red">DIV example</div>

<p>This one is <span style="color:red; font-weight:bold">only a test</span>.</p>

div-and-span.html




The <span> Tag

Inline style element Useful for modifying a specific portion of text

• Don't create a separate area (paragraph) in the document Very useful with CSS

23

<p>This one is <span style="color:red; font-weight:bold">only a test</span>.</p>

<p>This one is another <span style="font-size:32px; font-weight:bold">TEST</span>.</p>

span.html




HTML Tables

Tables represent tabular data

• A table consists of one or several rows

• Each row has one or more columns

Tables comprised of several core tags:

• <table></table>: begin / end the table

• <tr></tr>: create a table row

• <td></td>: create tabular data (cell)

Tables should not be used for layout. Use CSS floats and positioning styles instead

24




Form Fields

Single-line text input fields:

Multi-line textarea fields:

Hidden fields contain data not shown to the user:

• Often used by JavaScript code

25

<input type="text" name="FirstName" value="This is a text field" />

<textarea name="Comments">This is a multi-line text field</textarea>

<input type="hidden" name="Account" value="This is a hidden text field" />

webpage.• Persistent Local Storage − To achieve without resorting to third-party plug-ins.• Web Workers − A next-generation bidirectional communication technology for web applications.• Server-Sent Events − HTML5 introduces events which flow from web server to the web browsers
