HTML INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language, and it is the most widely used language to
write Web Pages.
Hypertext refers to the way in which Web pages (HTML documents) are linked
together. Thus, the link available on a webpage is called Hypertext.
As its name suggests, HTML is a Markup Language which means you use HTML to
simply "mark-up" a text document with tags that tell a Web browser how to structure
it to display.
When you visit a web site (e.g., www.google.com)
your web browser retrieves the HTML web page and
renders it.
The HTML page is actually stored on the computer
that is hosting the web site and the page is sent to
your browser.
