HTML Introduction
What is HTML?
HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. It describe the contents and appearance of pages on the World Wide Web. It use pairs of opening and closing tags to describe each element on a Web page
For example, code <a href=“http://www.cuhk.edu.hk">school</a> describes a link(URL) on the page. The <a href…> tag indicates the beginning of link and </a> indicates the end of the link.
If you design pages in FrontPage, you don‘t need to know any HTML or DHTML; because it is a WYSIWYG(所見即所得 ) design tool that can automatically generate the HTML code.
