    What is html?

    HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. Hypertext means "text with links in it." Any time you click on a word that
    brings you to a new webpage, you've clicked on hypertext!

    It looks like this:

    <!DOCTYPE html>

    <html>

    <body>

    This is my first web page

    </body>

    </html>

    The appearance of the page will not have changed at all, but the purpose of HTML is to apply meaning, not presentation, and
    this example has now defined some fundamental elements of a web page.
    The first line on the top, is a document type declaration and it lets the browser know which flavor of HTML youre using
    (HTML5, in this case). Its very important to stick this in - If you dont, browsers will assume you dont really know what youre
    doing and act in a very peculiar way.
    To get back to the point, <html> is the opening tag that kicks things off and tells the browser that everything between that and

    the </html> closing tag is an HTML document. The stuff between <body> and </body> is the main content of the document that
    will appear in the browser window.
    TML documents imply a structure of nested HTML elements. These are indicated in the document by HTML tags, enclosed in angle
    brackets thus: <p>
    In the simple, general case, the extent of an element is indicated by a pair of tags: a 'start tag' <p> and 'end tag'</p>. The text content of
    the element, if any, is placed between these tags.

    Tags may also enclose further tag markup between the start and end, including a mixture of tags and text. This indicates further, nested,
    elements, as children of the parent element.
    The start tag may also include attributes within the tag. These indicate other information, such as identifiers for sections within the
    document, identifiers used to bind style information to the presentation of the document, and for some tags such as the <img> used to
    embed images, the reference to the image resource.

    The <code> tag is a phrase tag. It defines a piece of computer code.


    The <base> tag specifies the base URL/target for all relative URLs in a document.
    There can be at maximum one <base> element in a document, and it must be inside the <head> element.
