HTML
HTML stands for "Hyper Text Markup Language". HTML file is a text file that contains markup tags which tell the web browsers how to display the page. HTML file has htm or html as the file extension. There are other advanced forms as well such as xml, shtml, eml etc. HTML file can be created using a simple text editor.
HTML files are created by tags placed at the beginning and end of the file. All tags in HTML are noted by putting them within less than "<" and ">" brackets, and almost all Tags have matching opening and closing tags. The closing tags usually have the same name as the opening tags, except that a slash is used to prefix the closing tags. HTML file comprises the code and the content that appears between the opening Tag <HTML> and the closing tag </HTML>.
If you look at the HTML source code you may notice JavaScript, CSS, and the following HTML elements and attributes. This gives you just the basic idea and should not be used as a technical document guide or reference.
