The creation of websites is made possible by the use of HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language), HTML is code which is made up of several tags.
Tag types come in many forms from simple p tags (paragraph) to meta tags for search engine use. The page must begin with the header code which allows the browser to identify what variables of HTML the website is using. Then head tags must be added to give the page a heading, within the head tags must be title tags for the page title.
Tables can also be created using tr and td tags, several factors can be altered such as the table size and border thickness.
To make the page presentable several style techniques may be used, the most basic of these is in-line style which is present in the source code, a harder but better way to do it is to use Cascading Style Sheets, these are external documents which govern how all of the different elements of the page will look, for this to work the Style Sheet must be linked back to in the source code.
Although HTML is the standard for website creation, XHTML is beginning to come into play as a more dominant tool. The reason for this is the fact that XHTML is far stricter and this allows for easier governing.
