10 Learning Points on HTML


What I have learnt on HTML,

1. HTML defines the structure and layout of a Web document by using a variety of tags and attributes.


2. HTML actually stands for HyperText Markup Language.

3. HTML is used to create web browsers.

4. HTML coding makes your website look like a website, rather than just plain text.

5. With HTML, you can:

  • Create titles, headings and subheadings
  • Make a bulleted or numbered list.
  • Delineate paragraphs.
  • Put text in bold or italics.
  • Add pictures and links to your site.
  • And much more.

6. HTML is not compiled. It is written and used with no changes being done to it. It starts out a text file, and is still a text file when a browser or user agent reads and interprets it.

7. Every web page is actually a HTML file.

8. To create websites using HTML, HTML tags are needed. They are the hidden keywords within a web page that define how the browser must format and display its content.


9. Most tags must have two parts, an opening and a closing part. For example, <html> is the opening tag and </html> is the closing tag.

10. The latest version of HTML released is HTML5 which is focusing on the needs of Web application developers as well as evolving HTML and addressing issues found in the current specifications.
