BASIC HTML STRUCTUREweb designer image


Open Notepad located in the Tools folder on your desktop. Type the following text and symbols EXACTLY, BUT replace the text between the title tags and the body tags with your own text.

<html>

<head>
<title>Title of Your Web Page</title>
</head>

<body>
Type a sentence or two of your choosing between the body tags.
</body>

</html>


The text that you type in Notepad will wrap (Format menu, check Word Wrap), but the lines are very long. You will find it easier to read your code if you use the Enter key to add extra blank lines as you see in the example above. Extra spaces and blank lines in the source language will be ignored when the HTML is interpreted.

To save: choose Save As and title your page index.htm
In the "Save as type" box, check All Files .
Save in your Website folder in your H: drive.
Open the .htm file in your H: drive to see your web page. It should contain only the sentences you typed, and the title you typed should appear in the blue bar at the top of the screen.
