HTML BASIC EXAMPLE

HTML DOCUMENT

All Html documents must always start with a document type declaration <!DOCTYPE html>. The HTML document itself must begin with <html> and end with the </html> closing tags. This is to indicate that it is an HTML document. The visible part of the HTML document is between <body> and </body>.

HTML CODE:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Page Title</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>My First Heading</h1>
    <p>My first paragraph.</p>
  </body>
</html>

The <!DOCTYPE> Declaration The <!DOCTYPE> declaration stands for the document type and helps browsers display web pages correctly. Its features include that it must always appear once at the top of the page (before HTML tags). It is not case-sensitive and is written as <!DOCTYPE html> in HTML5.

HTML Headings

The HTML heading is defined from <h1> till <h6>The <h1> is usually the biggest heading and is the most important heading. The <h6> is usually the smallest heading and is the least important heading.
