HTML # 1 - Introduction to HTML

What is HTML?

• HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language.

            Let's see what is Hyper Text and what is Markup Language?

Hypertext:  Hypertext is text which contains links to other texts (the link available on a webpage is called Hypertext). Every time when you click on a word which brings you to a new webpage, you have clicked on a hypertext. 
Example:
<html>

    <head>

      <title>Hypertext</title>

   </head>

<body>

      <a>href="https://www.google.com"<h1>Google</h1></a>

         </body>

</html>

Markup language: HTML is a Markup Language which means you use HTML to simply "mark-up" a text document with tags that tell a Web browser how to structure it to display.HTML describes the structure of Web pages using markup.

• HTML elements are the building blocks of HTML pages.
• HTML elements are represented by tags.
• HTML tags label pieces of content such as "heading", "paragraph", "table", and so on.
• Browsers do not display the HTML tags, but use them to render the content of the page.
