Learning the meaning of HTML was the first thing that I learnt in the session today.
HTML is just Hyper Text making up the whole page.
We started to do some simple HTML using TextEdit.
The most important things to remember when creating HTML coding is to change the preferences to ignore rich HTML commands.
And to Format < Make Plain Text.
Then save as .HTML and click the button that says: use HTML.
The first page should be saved as 'Index.HTML'
Tags cover everything in the HTML coding, and the basic setup of a HTML page is:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
</BODY>
</HTML>
In this session we practiced putting simple text in with a title and body. Not very adventurous but i'm sure that building up this practice of simple HTML will allow us to use more advanced HTML in the future.
When viewing the HTML we opened the browser, file, open file.
We also learned some more simple coding:
BOLD - <B>_______</B>
ITALICS - <I>_______</I>
HEADING - <H1>_______</H1>
PARAGRAPH - <P>
BREAK (NEXT LINE) - <BR>
We also did a quick test on HTML after this session, Pete said that anything above 4 is good! I got 12/20 which isn't too bad and hopefully will improve if I take it again in the future!
We showed our video this week in a viewing session on Thursday and got a very good reaction with lots of feedback about our ideas from the whole group. This improved our confidence on the project and made us want to produce more work!
