_____________________________________________________---All HTML Tags You Have To Memorize---
Here are all the basic HTML tags or commands that you have to memorize.
Before starting, I encourage you to go ahead and open up notepad++ (The Post That is Below where you select the type of tutorial you would like.)
- <!doctype html> -- This is telling the web browser that this part of the webpage is going to be composed of text, links, images, and videos, etc. (you must have this at the top of every document) {will be covered in the next tutorial i.e part 2.}
- <html></html> -- This is telling the browser that everything inside of the <html>(i.e. HERE)</html> tagwill be composed of text. (all was put this after <!doctype html> on a separate line.)
- <head></head> --- This Tells the web browser to place what the title says as the text in the tab.
- <title></tile> --- This is the text that will be displayed in the tab. (Always put in side of <head></head> and on it's own line. (Part 2 goes into farther detail with examples and a file or two to show examples.
- <body></body> --- tells the browser that everything inside of this will be text on the page.
- <h1></h1> --- This is a header, it goes from H1 to H6.
H1 to H3 is all bigger then standard text. H4 to H6 is all smaller then average text and mainly used for captions or fine print. - <ul></ul> -- This stands for Un-ordered list every thing inside this will be marked by bullet points.
- <ol></ol> -- This stands for ordered list. Everything inside this will be pre-ceded by a number.
- <li></li> used inside <ul></ul> and <ol></ol>.

- <img src="img url" height="number of pixels high" width="number of pixels across"> -- This implements an image into the webpage.
- <a href="mailto:youremail@email.com"></a> -- everything iside will be marked by an e-mail link going to the desired e-mail.
- <p></p> -- tells the web page that everything inside is in the same paragraph.
- <br> -- creates a line break (line space) between where you put the tag at.
