W3C DTD HTML this signifies that we are using the HTML developed by W3
consortium. Transitional the other option here is Frameset, which is used if you are using lots of
frames in your texted with this we end the definition of the line for the HTML. as mentioned in
the case of tags, each tag has to have a open and close command. This is the closing command
of HTML. MAIN BODY OF THE TEXT, As we have the body of the text in a letter, we have here
the body of the text too. In fact, the whole text is divided into body and head. The head defines
the various headings and body defines the text. The head section provides information about
the URL of your Web page as well as its relationship with the other pages at your site. The only
element in the HEAD section that is visible to the user is the title of the Web pages. The BODY of
your HTML document contains the bulk of your Web page, including all the text, graphics, and
formatting.
Then there is a title. This is the page title. So this should be short and descriptive. The title is
used in search indexes as well as in browsers’ history list and bookmarks. There must be only
the TITLE tag in each HTML document. A title cannot contain any formatting, images, or links to
other pages. Do not use colons or backslashes in your titles. These symbols cannot be used by
some operating system for file names. Its good idea to use a common element to begin each
pages title. For example, you could begin each page with My Page: followed by the specific area
described on that page. PUTTING HEADERS Various types of headings can be placed in the text.
Maximum of 6 headings are allowed. But, you can use only 3 at a time. Each one of the heading
is numbered from 1 onward. Obviously you cannot repeat the numbers. FORMATIING TEXT IN
HTML Those of you who have worked on any word processing know what formatting of the
text is. Using this concept you make the text more presentable by making in Bold, Italics, and
underline. Not only this you change the look by changing the font in use and make it bigger or
smaller by changing the font size. Here in HTML you have to be careful while formatting because
you do not know which browser the user is going to use. The result is different for different
browser. First among them is Font. You have the liberty to load any number of fonts in your
system. But, while using any one of them you have to make sure that the user of the web site
may or may not have the same font. In that case this font would be replaced by a default font
of the user’s systems. Where Arial Black is the font name, before the text whose font you want
to change. Remember you have to type the complete name of the font as it appears in the
windows.
