Flying Lemurs: Fly for Fun

TUTORIALS

The Second Easiest Web Page
The second easiest page to create has simple "tags" that tell the interpreting programs, like Internet Explorer or Netscape, what is contained within the tags.
Simple Tags: <html>, <head>, <title>, <body>

These tags are placed like so:

<html> goes at the top of the text file. It lets the program know that HTML is being used.

<head> is next. Within the head area we can place the title and other tags to further inform the interpreting program what we want it to do with our page.

The <title> tag goes inside the head tags. Whatever you place within the title tags gets put at the top, title area, of the web page.

We always end the tags with a forward, ending slash after the content so the text in your second easiest page will look like this:

<html>
<head>
<title>Title of This Web Page</title>
</head>
<body>
Stuff that I want the world to see goes here.
</body>
</html>

And that's it.

And this is how the page looks to the world: Second Easiest Web Page

When you look at the page source by going to the menu and clicking on "View -> Source", you can see the second easiest web page code.
