Learning Html - Basic Guides. by MescoWapGN: 8:07pm On Jul 17, 2013
The hit of the new of breeze is on. Just discover how to learn html and all basic tags.

First we begin
html uses a begining <> and end </> tags. We would here disclose to you some html tags and how they can be used.

Spacing Tag.

<br></br> the tags when added and saved as .html and viewed through a browser inserts space or line break to the contents the two tags or at the top and down.

More tags would be treated in details once we are sure that we have a sizeable audience. Enjoy!


[What should be eminent is that html taught to a lay man (as we are doing,) should be in its simplest form inother the learner grasp the teaching better, when he is firm enough , he could know the reality and styles of it all.

What is being taught here is almost like a formal knowledge created to draw attention of the html illiterate and not the gurus.

If you are a webmaster you can offer or chip in your own advice and not criticize ,no one is perfect.]


HTML TEXT

Introduction

To enter text on your pages- all you have to do is simply enter the text.

If you do not specify any attributes for text it will use the default size, font etc. of the visitor's browser.
Browsers can only show fonts available on the visitor's PC.
Therefore you are limited to using the fonts that are available on almost any computer.
If you need to use a fancy font, you should use your graphics program to make an image with the text. This will assure that the visitor will see it - even if he doesn't have the fancy font you're using.
Since images take up much more space than plain text, thus increasing download time, you should use this option with care.
On the following pages you will learn how to customize thefont settings - both on normaltext and text that works as alink.
Furthermore, you will learn to control how the text aligns on your pages.

I advice that you focus on teaching yourself html first before coming out. Try to hone your html skill. For now, you may need to know that there is nothing in html like: <br></br>. Break tag doesn't have opening and closing. You can either write it like this: <br/> or <br>. Again, <br> doesn't add any space. It only forces a line-break.

^lol. cheesy . Dude you need to start learning serious html. BTW, I really don't think you can teach html on a forum except you want to help people in solving their problems

Two things are obvious here:

1) @OP does not know HTML. As in <br></br> Really
2) Even if @OP knows HTML, @OP cannot teach

BASE FONT

To specify the overall font for your page add the<basefont>tag at the beginning of the<body>section.

HTML: The code : eg
<html>
<head>
<title>my page</title>
</head>
<body>
<basefont face="arial, verdana, courier" size="4" color="green">
Hello! This is my page.<br>
All text looks the same<br>
since I only specified a basefont.<br>
</body>
</html>

The color attribute selects the desired color for your text. The face attribute selects the desired font.

Note:
If you enter a list of fonts, like in the example, the browser will use the first font in the list available on the visitor's computer.
The size attribute specifies the desired size, between 1 (smallest) and 7 (biggest).
