Project 02 Creating and Editing a Web Page - Notes
- 1. Creating and Editing a Web Page HTML Project 02
- 2. Saving an HTML File HTML files must end with an extension of .htm or .html HTML files with an extension of .html can be viewed on Web servers running an operating system that allows long file names (Windows). For Web servers that run an operating system that does not accept long file names, you need the .htm extension.
- 3. Saving an HTML File In this book, all files are saved using the .htm extension. When saving an HTML file, do NOT include any spaces in the file name. Although allowed in both Windows and Macintosh, it is NOT allowed on a UNIX Web server—and most Web servers run UNIX The home page of a Web site should always be saved as index.htm.
- 4. Saving an HTML File Save Notepad files with .htm extension (.html is also acceptable but not to be used for classroom exercises) .html Used for Web servers that run an operating system that allows long file names (Windows/Macintosh do allow) .htm Used for Web servers that run an operating system that does not accept long file names

- 13. DOCTYPE – Initial Tags to Define a Web Page Structure <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html> <head> <title> Campus Tutoring</title> </head> <body> </body> </html>
- 14. DOCTYPE – Initial Tags to Define a Web Page Structure <!DOCTYPE> indicates the version and type of HTML used
- 15. DOCTYPE – Initial Tags to Define a Web Page Structure <html> </html> Indicates the start and end of an HTML document
- 16. DOCTYPE – Initial Tags to Define a Web Page Structure <title> </title> Indicates the start and end of a title which does not appear in the Web page but appears on the Title Bar of the browser (Always include your name and Project name)
- 17. DOCTYPE – Initial Tags to Define a Web Page Structure <body> </body> Indicates the start and end of the Web page body
- 18. DOCTYPE – Initial Tags to Define a Web Page Structure Most HTML tags have corresponding end tags—not all! For tags that do not have end tags, such as <hr /> and <br />, the tag is closed using a space and a forward slash
- 19. Define the Web Page Structure <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <!DOCTYPE> tag is used to tell the browser which HTML or XHTML version and type the document uses. The W3C supports three document types:
- 20. Define the Web Page Structure strict (prohibits the use of deprecated tags--tags that the W3C has named for eventual removal because newer, more functional tags are replacing them) transitional (allows the use of deprecated tags) frameset (used to support frames on a Web page and also allows the use of deprecated tags) Notice that we are using a transitional document type
- 21. Define the Web Page Structure The <!DOCTYPE> tag also includes a URL that references a Document Type Definition (DTD) found on the W3C Web site. This is a file containing definitions of tags and how they should be used in a Web page. To create an HTML document, you begin by inserting a <!DOCTYPE> tag and four sets of tags which define the overall structure of a standard Web page and divide the HTML file into its basic sections—such as the header information and the body of the page that contains text and graphics
- 22. Headings Serve to separate text and introduce new topics Tags = <h6> to <h1> (smallest to largest) Heading size 1 = 24 point (usually only one <h1> tag per page) Heading size 2 = 18 point Heading size 3 = 16 point Heading size 4 = 14 point Heading size 5 = 13 point Heading size 6 = 11 point Normal text = 12 point
- 23. Paragraphs: <p> </p> Used to indicate the start of a new paragraph; the browser starts a new line and inserts a blank line above the new paragraph
- 24. Lists Lists structure text into an itemized format—either bulleted or numbered Ordered <ol> </ol> Also known as a numbered list formats information in a series using numbers or letters Default type = Arabic numbers Unordered <ul> </ul> Also known as a bulleted list formats information using small images called bullets Default type = disc bullet To change the defaults, the type attribute is entered within the <ol> or <ul> tags. <ol type=”A”> or <ul type=”square”> After the <ol> or <ul> tag is entered to define the type of list, the <li> and </li> tags are used to define a list item in an ordered or unordered list.
- 25. Images: <img> Web pages use three types of files as images: Graphics Interchange Format (GIF), Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG), and Portable Network Graphics (PNG) Attributes used with the <img> tag: src attribute = used to define the URL of the image to load alt attribute = used to provide alternative text if the image does not load
- 26. It is important to include the height and width attributes so the browser will know the size of the image without having to calculate it. Adding these attributes will be expected every time you insert an image tag! <imgsrc=”cts_clip8.gif” width=”484” height=”62” alt=”Student Services logo” />
- 27. Background color: bgcolor attribute Use a six-digit number code or a color name (predefined) Must be added in the <body> tag (pg. 55)
- 28. Align attribute Right: align=”right” Center: align=”center” Left: align=”left” By default, headings (and text) are left-aligned
- 29. Horizontal rule: <hr /> Does not have an end tag Tag is closed using a space and a forward slash Visual divider of sections on a Web page Can use an inline image or the horizontal rule tag Dimension is added to the default horizontal rule by increasing the number of pixels that are displayed Can also turn off shading using the noshade option
