HTML Help
I have put together this help page to help my clients understand some basic HTML tags that may be needed, especially if you are using a database to control site content.
If you ever have any questions please drop me an email at webmaster@miracomdesign.com.
TEXT CONROL: |
|
<b> |
Anything typed in after this character will be shown in bold face type. The <b> html tag must be closed with a </b>.
example: <b>type example</b> would yield type example
|
|
<i> |
Anything typed in after this character will be shown in itallic type. The <i> html tag must be closed with a </i>.
example: <i>type example</i> would yield type example
|
|
<u> |
Anything typed in after this character will be shown in underlined type. The <u> html tag must be closed with a </u>.
example: <u>type example</u> would yield type example
|
|
<br> |
This is a line break character. |
|
<p> |
This tag is used to define a paragraph of text. The </p> HTML tag is no needed but can be used. |
|
NOTE: You can also combine HTML tags.
example: <b><i>type example</i></b> would yield type example
|
BASIC IMAGE CONROL: |
|
<img src=""> |
This tag is used to insert an image into a web page.
example: <img src="/images/logo3.gif"> would insert my logo onto any page on my site. |
LINKING: |
|
<a href=""> |
This tag is used to insert a link into a web page. The <a href=""> tag must be closed out with </a>. Any text, or image contained between the <a href=""> and </a> tags will act as a link.
example: <a href="mailto:webmaster@miracomdesign.com>email me</a> would yield email me and would open your email application and insert my email address.
example: <a href="mailto:webmaster@miracomdesign.com?subject=Email Test>email me</a> would yield email me and would open your email application and insert my email address and "Email Test" into the subject header.
example: <a href="/index.shtml">home page</a> would yield home page and link back to the home page of this site. |
