An HTML file can be created using any simple text editor
like "Notepad" of the Microsoft Windows.
|
The
HTML file can be divided into the three parts:
|
HTML
Header
|
HTML
Body
|
HTML

|
|
So

|
|
HTML Header is the top most part of the HTML file in
this section of the file we define the header of file and
also Title of the file can be provided.
|
|
HTML Body is the middle part of file, in this section we define
all text and elements which is to displayed on web
page.
|
|
HTML
Footer is the end section of the file.

To write a HTML file you need an text editor, open
the text editor and start writing file as given below:
|
|
Steps
to write a file & view the web page:
|
1. Open the text editor (e.g. notepad).
|
|
2. Write the above file in it OR copy the above file
and paste it on the notepad.
|
|
3. Save this file as .htm or .html file
extension (e.g. <filename>.htm , .html).
|
|
4. Now open the Internet Browser and open
the saved file.
|
|
5. Now you can see your web page.
|
|
The file starts from an <html> tag and ends with
the </html>. <html> tag identifies that
it is an HTML file. <html> is also called as
open tag and it also need its closed tag which is </html>.
Between these tags we will define the Header of the file, so add
the <head> tag and below it write to
close <head> tag.
|
|
More to display the Title to the Web Browser use
the special tag <title> write here
title </title>. Text written between
the <title> & </title> tag will be
displayed as the header of the your web page. The important tag is <body> tag.
Whatever you want to display on the web page you must write it in
between <body> & </body>.
