Notes Title

The first thing to put on web page, is a title. The title is what will show up in the very top
of the window. Let’s say that title is going to be “SNGT’s Web Page”, we would type:

<title>SNGT’s Web Page</title>
In HTML, every command is surrounded by <‘s, and >’s. And in most commands, we need
to tell the web browser when to end this command. Do this by putting a back slash (/) in
front of the ending command, as in above. Since HTML isn’t case sensitive, <title> is the same
as <TITLE>, which is the same as <TiTLe>. Next, we need to decide what we want to put
on page. Text, links, graphics, and text fields, are just a few ideas. Follow the table of contents
above to decide how, and what to put on page.

Headings

HTML has six levels of headings, numbered 1 through 6, with 1 being the largest. Headings
are displayed in larger, or smaller fonts, and usually bolder. If we wanted to type “Hello”,
this is what we would type for each heading, and what the outcome is:

<h1>Hello</h1>
Hello

<h2>Hello</h2>
Hello

<h3>Hello</h3>
Hello

<h4>Hello</h4>
Hello

<h5>Hello</h5>
Hello
<h6>Hello</h6>
Hello

Paragraphs

Whenever we have more than a sentence of writing, we should have paragraphs.
