cannonnier:The link itself- http://www./photos-fred-amata-parties-with-spartacus-star/ is a full address. However, the words "more pix" is the clickable text. The code would thus be: <a href="http://www./photos-fred-amata-parties-with-spartacus-star/">more pix</a>. So "more pix" is NOT the address but it's a link telling you that- "if you click me, I will take you to the address, www./photos-fred-amata-parties-with-spartacus-star/." 13 Likes 2 Shares |

cannonnier:The full address is used as a link when the destination page is on another website. However, if the destination page is on the same site, the full address wouldn't be needed. |

Usually, a text link is differentiated from normal text in this way. When the mouse is hovered (moved over) the link, the arrow changes to a hand. By default, An unvisited link is blue in color and underlined. A visited link is purple in color and underlined. An active link is red and underlined. 9 Likes 6 Shares |

HTML Hyperlinks HTML Hyperlinks are words or images that are found on a page (source page), such that if it is clicked, the user will be taken to another point (destination) in the same page or a different page. Links are created with the anchor <a> tag. The <a> tag is however useless if the destination is not given. This is done with the href (hyperlink reference) attribute. As learnt in a previous session, all attributes have values. The value of the href attribute is the URL of the destination page. Thus, the Hyperlink syntax is: <a href="url">Content</a> NOTE: It is the content between the opening and closing tag that is clicked as the link. Example: <a href="http://www.nairaland.com">Nairaland</a> The text Nairaland will appear as the link and when clicked, will take the user to the adress- http://www.nairaland.com. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Text Formatting Tags: There will come a time when you'll need to format some of your text for emphasis, highlighting, e.t.c. You might have come across most of them when using MS Word and even here on Nairaland. The predominant text formatting tags. The Bold <b> tag: This tag makes the selected text bold. <b>Text</b> The Italics tag: This tag makes the selected text italicized <i>Text</i> The Subscript <sub> tag: This tag makes shrinks the selected text in relation to other text around it. <sub>Text<sub> The Superscript <sup> tag: This tag raises the selected text in relation to other text. This is similar to the way we write indices in Maths. <sup>Text</sup> The Computer Code <code> tag: This tag presents the selected text as if it were written by a typewriter. This tag is useful if you want to illustrate a code, when teaching online. <code>Text</code> 11 Likes 5 Shares |

There are two tags that work in hand with the <h> and <p> tags. These are: 1-The Horizontal Rule <hr>: The <hr> tag crates a horizontal rule in the document. The horizontal rule is created on a new line. It can be used to show the end of a particular section in an article. 2-The Break <br> tag: It sends contents to the next line. It can be used as an alternative to the <p> tag for this function only. NOTE: The <hr> and <br> tags don't require a closing tag. 8 Likes 6 Shares |

Aafulenu: Quick question, whats d best format? Html 4, html 5 or xhtml?The main difference between HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0 is that HTML 4.01 is more "forgiving" e.g you can ommit certain closing tags. So its good for a beginner. XHTML 1.0 does not do this. This gives an advantage of dependability and thus is widely used by webmasters. HTML5 is straight foward (as you can see in its DOCTYPE). However, it is not supported in old browsers. But features not supported will degrade to its older counter parts. I use XHTML 1.0 though. You can use any according to the above stated explanation. All oft their advantages and disadvantages... 6 Likes 2 Shares |

The Paragraph <p> tag- The <p> tag is used to create a new paragraph in an HTML page. The <p> tag is somewhat compulsory as all items (text, images, e.t.c) lay within it. The code for inserting a paragraph is: <p>content</p> When a new <p> element is inserted after a previous <p> tag, a line of white space is left and its contents start on the line after. 8 Likes 3 Shares |

The headings should be used as headings and as headings alone. DO NOT use headings to make text bigger (that's the work of another tag) as search engines use headings to determine the structure of your page and it will help in SEO. 9 Likes 1 Share |

<h1> to <h6> tags 7 Likes 3 Shares

Webmasters / Re: Learn Web Design LIVE On Nairaland!!! by iyenimofe(m): 5:42pm On Aug 07, 2013 |
The <h1> tag is the largest of the <h1> to <h6> tags, with <h2> being smaller than <h1>, <h3> is smaller than <h2> and so on. The <h6> tag is the smallest among his "brothers." Thus, you may use <h1> as the main heading of a page, <h2> as a subheading and so on. To appreciate the difference between this tags, consider this image. The first line of text was written as an <h1>, the second <h2>, the third <h3> and so on. NOTE: Writing the <h2> to <h6> tags is the same process of the <h1> tag, except that 1 in <h1> is replaced with 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

The Headings- <h1> to <h6> tags: These tags are used to signify headings of a document. Headings in a Web page are used in the same way you'll use an heading when writing a physical article (in paper and pen). To create a heading: 4 Likes 1 Share |

Other elements included in the <head> section are: The <base> element: It is used to create a base or default URL for all link on the page. The <link> element: It links the document to an external document. E.g a style sheet(for beautifying a page). The <meta> element: It provides keywords, document description, author of document, e.t.c. The meta tag elements are very useful for Search Engine Optimization (SEO), thus they will be discussed in full later. The <script> element: It is used to attach a client-side script like JavaScript in the document. The <style> elements: It is used to include CSS rules in the document. NOTE: The elements above will be treated later when we apply them as to their respective uses. 15 Likes 2 Shares |
