HTML introduction

What is HTML?
HTML is a markup language that is used for creating web pages.

What does HTML stand for?
HTML stands for hyper text markup language.

What are tags?
Tags are the "programming" part of the page [HTML IS NOT PROGRAMMING]. For instance anything that goes in <here> is a tag. Each tag has its own use.

Here's how a HTML script should look:

<!DOCTYPE>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
<script>
var game = Transformice
alert(game + "is an mmorpg");
</script>
<title>HTML tutorial for beginners</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1> This is a html tutorial</h1>
<p> that is created by cheesehogga. </p>
</body>
</html>

Here is just a tiny bit of HTML. Now to explaining. + some tags

What is the DOCTYPE tag?
The DOCTYPE tag lets the website collect information about your browser for formatting.

What is that link tag ?
The link tag is use for connecting an external CSS for decorating the site. You can use <style> tags for CSS aswell. Or inline. Which is something like this

<h1 style="color: blue;">

And everything that's in h1 will be blue.

What is the script tag?
The script tag is use for inserting JavaScript into your HTML.

What is h1?
The h stands for heading. So h1 is heading number 1. There are a total of 6 headings. As your heading number increases the text size gets smaller.

What is p?
The p tag stands for paragraph.

What can I use to make my script?
I prefer notepad++. But notepad will work. You can find some text editors like sublime online.

How do I see what I have made?
In order to see what you have made. You need to save the file with the extension as .htm or .html.

When I open it the address bar is the directory to my file. How do I put it on a .com or other domain?
Yes. That is because you haven't purchased a domain. Or have got access to a subdomain. Search up free web hosting. Neq3 is my preferred choice. Your website will then be available to other people around the world!!

I know this tutorial is crappy. That's because I'm on my phone doing this. I'm not on my computer. If you have any questions shoot me a pm. Don't try to contact me in game. I don't play Transformice anymore. You can contact me via Skype. My Skype is issac-l. Maybe ill continue posting things like this. Maybe some JavaScript, CSS, ruby, python, or php tutorials. Maybe even lua;).

Enjoy and happy scripting.
