How to make a webpage | Lesson 1: The Webpage Untangled
It is used to be that when someone says "web", we associate it with spiders and weaving threads. Nowadays, we associate the web with a different kind of weaving.
Instead of threads, we form a different kind of connection- a digital connection from one computer to another, to various computers - and the web that emerge from this connections are as complicated and as complex as any spider's web.
Webpage creation involves a local computer, where designers develop their webpage, and server ( a remote computer ) which contains the website and serves up the webpages ( which designers created ) for people to visit.
Your First Webpage
Webpages are created by designers using Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and eXtensible Hypertext Markup Language ( XHTML). These languages are used to tell browsers how to display your webpage. Now let's get started by creating your first HTML webpage.
It is time to tell the world that you know how to make a webpage!
Open Notepad. It is commonly found under Accessories in the All Programs selection of the Window Start menu.
Type what you see inside the textbox. Example below.
HTML makes use of tag. The tags in the previous HTML code are highlighted in the following example. It also shows the basic pattern used for most HTML tags:
tag is the opening tag, content is the plain text or image and () is the closing tag
Note that for every opening tag there is an equivalent closing tag. The opening tags are different from the closing tags because the closing tags have a slash before the text. We will dissect what each tag in the text box stands for later in the book. For now, just type them in.
- Save that file in your My Documents folder by going to Notepad's File menu, selecting Save, typing "hello.html" and clicking save.
4 Open your browser ( Internet Explorer )
Go to your browser's file menu, click Open and click Browse.
Go to your My Documents folder, double click hello.html and click ok
Your first webpage is finally on the browser!
