Step 2 <html> Notice that (1) each formatting tag appears between "less
than" (<) and "greater than" (>) signs, and (2) the tags often appear in pairs, with the second tag
in the pair beginning with a "slash" (/). Here's a list of some of the basic
formatting tags in HTML: <h1>...</h1> header,
level 1 (the largest size type for a header, usually used at the beginning of
a page or the start of a new section). Smaller headers are tagged with
<h2>...</h2>, <h3>...</h3>, etc. <b>...</b> boldface text <i>...</i> italic text <center>...</center> centered
text <p> paragraph
return (inserts an extra line space between paragraphs) Note: Any paragraph returns that you insert in your
document by simply hitting the Return key on your keyboard will be ignored by
a Web browser. You must use the tag <p> to create a paragraph break on
the screen. <br> line
break (no extra space) <hr> horizontal
rule (a line running left-to-right across the page, to separate one section
from the next) <ol>...</ol> ordered,
or numbered, list. Each list item begins with the tag <li> and falls
somewhere between the <ol>...</ol> tags. <ul>...</ul> unordered,
or bulleted, list. Again, each list item begins with the tag <li>. <a
href="filename.html">...</a> a
hotlink to another file in the same folder <a href="http://URL">...</a> a
hotlink to another site. You will have to know the Uniform Resource Locator
(URL), or Web address, of any site to which you want to link your page. <img src="image.gif"> This
tag would insert an image with the filename "image.gif" on the far
left side of your page. (Note: Don't worry if this information seems
confusing or overwhelming right now. It will make more sense as you apply it
in the next few steps.) |
