MISSION 3
Introduction
Welcome to Mission 3! In this mission, we will be exploring the fascinating world of HTML and its various tags. HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is the standard language used for creating web pages and organizing the content within them. By understanding and utilizing HTML effectively, we can create visually appealing and well-structured web pages. Let's dive in and discover the power of HTML!
The Basics of HTML
HTML is composed of various tags that dictate the formatting and organization of content on a web page. These tags are represented by angle brackets (<>) and are written in pairs - an opening tag and a closing tag. The content that lies between the opening and closing tags is affected by the properties of the tag.
Let's start with a basic HTML structure. Every HTML document should begin with the <!DOCTYPE html> declaration, which informs the browser that the page is written in HTML5. The opening and closing <html> tags contain all the content on the page. Within these tags, we have the <head> and <body> tags. The <head> tag includes meta-information about the web page, such as the title of the page that appears in the browser's title bar. The <body> tag contains the visible content of the web page.
Text Formatting
In HTML, we can apply various formatting styles to our text. The <h1> to <h6> tags specify headings of different sizes, with <h1> being the largest and <h6> being the smallest. The <p> tag represents a paragraph of text.
We can also emphasize certain words or phrases using the <em> or <strong> tags. The <em> tag italicizes the text, while the <strong> tag makes the text bold. Additionally, we can use the <u> tag to underline text.
Creating Lists
Lists are an important way of organizing information on a web page. HTML provides two types of lists - ordered lists and unordered lists. An ordered list is created using the <ol> tag and each list item is denoted by the <li> (list item) tag. On the other hand, an unordered list is created using the <ul> tag and also uses the <li> tag to represent each item in the list.
Lists can be nested within each other to create a hierarchical structure, which is useful for organizing complex sets of information. To create nested lists, simply include a list within another list item.
Conclusion
HTML is an essential tool for creating web pages that are visually appealing and well-structured. By understanding the different HTML tags and their functionalities, we can effectively format text, create lists, and organize content on our web pages. This knowledge is crucial for web developers and designers, as it forms the foundation of web development. So go ahead, experiment with HTML, and unleash your creativity in building amazing web pages!
That concludes Mission 3. Congratulations on completing another task of your coding journey. Stay tuned for the next mission as we continue to explore the amazing world of coding!
