A web page consists of basically two parts: the header and body. The header section of a web page contains information about a web page. The header section contains tags such the title and meta tags. The body section of a web page document contains the content for a web page. All the information you want to display on a web page should be included in the body section of the web page. Note that the header information, except for the title tag, of a web page is not displayed on the web page.< ?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
You may ask yourself that question when you know there are many web development tools, such as Dreamweaver and FrontPage, that can create pretty interesting web pages without you knowing HTML. Keep in mind if you don’t know HTML and you use a web development tool, you are at the mercy of the tool. You may not have complete control over your web page development projects. If you learn HTML and also learn a web development software, you will have much more control over your web pages.
HTML is nothing more than a document formatting or tagging language. The tags (insider the <> delimiters characters) are instructions that instruct a browser how to display a web page. In HTML 4.0 and later, style sheets can also be used to format a web page. < ?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = “urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office” />
