2.1 What is HTML?


HTML is a language for describing web pages.

• HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language


• HTML is not a programming language, it is a markup language
• The purpose of the tags are to describe page content

2.2 HTML Tags


HTML markup tags are usually called HTML tags

• HTML tags are keywords (tag names) surrounded by angle brackets like
<html>
• HTML tags normally come in pairs like <b> and </b>
• The end tag is written like the start tag, with a forward slash before the tag
name
• Start and end tags are also called opening tags and closing tags

2.3 Web Browsers

The purpose of a web browser (Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Firefox) is to read
HTML documents and display them as web pages. The browser does not display the
HTML tags, but uses the tags to interpret the content of the page.
