“Basic HTML Made Easy”
To separate yourself from the pack, a bit of basic HTML skills will provide you with headings, paragraphs, bold or italic font, hyperlinks, etc.
So let’s start. It’s really not that difficult with a little practice.
HTML Headings Code
HTML headings are defined with the <h1> to <h6> tags
For Example:
<h1>Michael E Friedman</h1>
Michael E Friedman
<h2>Michael E Friedman</h2>
Michael E Friedman
Michael E Friedman
Michael E Friedman
Michael E Friedman
Michael E Friedman
As you can see <h1> to <h6> determines the heading size. Do NOT forget to close off the heading with a forward slash 1.e. </h1>. If you omit this step your entire document will be formatted to the specific heading selected.
HTML Paragraph Code
Let’s move on to creating paragraphs. This is very basic HTML code. For purposes of this illustration each line of the following example should be considered a new paragraph.
<p>paragraph 1.</p><p>paragraph 2.</p><p>paragraph 3.</p>
paragraph 1.
paragraph 2.
paragraph 3.
Once again do not forget to close off each paragraph with </p>. Forgetting the forward slash will create one large paragraph.
HTML Bold Text Code
<b>bold text</b> bold text
HTML Italic Text Code
<i>italic text</i> italic text
HTMLHyperlink Code
A hyperlink (or link) is a word, group of words, or image that you can click on to jump to a new document or a new section within the current document.
Links are specified in HTML using the <a> tag.
For example to have the text CLICK HERE link back to this blog the code would be as follows:
<a href=”http://www.michaelefriedman.com/”>C1ick Here</a>
which would result in this link C1ick Here.
Note:
1) the <a is open Not <a>
2) the “ quotation mark placement”
3) The spelling of Click – C1ick. This spelling replacing the letter l with the number 1 is to avoid being filtered as spam.
