Your First Web Page

CompuScholar - Web Design - Chapter 2

TermDefinition
Root Directory The folder on a computer's hard drive where all of the HTML files, image files, and other resources for a web site should be saved.
Common Folder The folder to hold all of your web site root directories.
Backup Making a copy of files in another location for safe keeping.
.html or .htm File extension for a web page.
Home Page The page displayed by a web server when a URL request arrives; usually named "index.html."
Encoding A process that converts information so that it can be stored in the computer's memory.
UTF-8 A popular way to encode text and characters from any written language into a series of 1's and 0's.
Brackets When combined with words between them, they tell the web browser how to display the data on the web page.
Tag When angle brackets are used around a specific word to mark the start and end of sections on a web page and tell browsers how to display those sections.
Opening Tag Marks the start of a section.
Closing Tag Marks when a needs to end, or stop. This is done by adding a forward slash (/) before the name of the tag.
Element Everything from the opening tag to the closing tag, including the tags themselves and the data within.
Empty Element The tag starts normally, but instead of a separate closing tag, there is a space and a forward slash just before the end bracket.
Case-Sensitivity Best Practice Use all lowercase names for elements (<html>), even though capital letters will work.
<!DOCTYPE html> Must be very first line in the file - before any other elements, blank lines, or spaces.
<html> Always the first tag after <!DOCTYPE>, tells the browser that everything is a mixture of HTML code and the displayed content.
<head> The first element inside the root <html>, contains information about the page and instructions for the browser, but is not visible to people reading the page in the browser.
<body> Always after the closing </head> tag, contains everything seen on the screen (text, images, links, etc...).
