How the Web Works?
WWW use classical
client / server architecture
HTTP is text-based request-response protocol
HTTP
Page request
HTTP
Server response
Client running a
Web Browser
Server running Web
Server Software
(IIS Apache, etc.)

What is a Web Page?
Web pages are text files containing
HTML – Hyper Text Markup
HTML
Language
A notation for describing
document structure (semantic markup)
formatting (presentation markup)
Looks like:
A Microsoft Word document
The markup tags tell the Web browser how to
display the page
5
Creating HTML Pages
An HTML file must have an
.htm or .html file
extension
HTML files can be created with text editors:
NotePad, NotePad ++, PSPad
Or HTML editors
(WYSIWYG Editors):
Microsoft FrontPage
Macromedia Dreamweaver
Netscape Composer
Microsoft Word

Some HTML Tags

Tags Attributes
Tags could have
attributes
Attributes specify their properties and behavior
Example:
Attribute alt with value "logo"
<img src="logo.gif" alt="logo" />
Few attributes that apply to every element:
id, style, class, title
The id is unique in the document
Content of title attribute is displayed as hint
when element is hovered with mouse
Some elements have obligatory attributes

Headings and Paragraphs
Heading Tags
<h1>Heading 1</h1>
<h2>Sub heading 2</h2>
<h3>Sub heading 3</h3>
Paragraph Tags
<p>This is my first paragraph</p>
<p>This is my second paragraph</p>
Sections: div and span
<div align="center" style=
"background: skyblue">This is a div</div>

Introduction to HTML
HTML Document Structure in Depth
The <!DOCTYPE> Declaration
At their beginning HTML documents must have a
document type declaration
It tells the Web browsers how to handle the HTML
data
Possible versions: HTML 2.0, HTML 3.2, HTML 4.01,
XHTML 1.0, XHTML 1.1, …
Example:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
See http://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/Web-Quality for a list
of possible doctypes
22
HTML vs. XHTML
XHTML is
more strict then HTML
All tags must be properly nested (HTML allows
<b><i>text</b></i>)
Tags and attribute names must be in lowercase
Attribute values must be in " " (HTML allows ' ')
All tags must be closed (<br/>, <img/>) while
HTML allows <br> and <img>
XHTML allows only one root <html> element
(HTML allows more than one)
23
XHTML vs. HTML (2)
Many element attributes
are deprecated in
XHTML, most are moved to CSS
Attribute
minimization is forbidden, e.g.
<input type="checkbox" checked>
<input type="checkbox" checked="checked" />
Note: Web browsers load XHTML faster than
HTML and valid code faster than invalid!
24
HTML Structure
HTML is comprised of elements called “tags”
Begins with <html> and ends with </html>
When writing XHTML, must define a namespace
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Tags are nested one inside another:
<html> <head></head> <body></body> </html>
Tags have attributes:
<img src="logo.jpg" alt="logo" />
HTML describes structure using two main sections:
<head> and <body>
25
The <head> Section
Contains
information that doesn’t show
directly on the viewable page
Starts after the <!doctype> declaration
Begins with <head> and ends with </head>
Contains mandatory single <title> tag
Can contain multiple nested tags, e. g.:
<meta>
<script>
<style>
<!– comments -->
26
<head> Section: <title> tag
Title should be placed between <head> and
</head> tags
<title>Telerik Academy – Winter Season 2009/2010
</title>
Used to specify a title to the Web page window
Search engines and people rely on titles
27
<head> Section: <meta>
Meta tags additionally
describe the content
contained within the page
<meta name="description" content="HTML
tutorial">
<meta name="keywords" content="html, web
design, styles">
<meta name="author" content="Chris Brewer">
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;
url=http://www.telerik.com">
28
<head> Section: <script>
The <script> </script> tag is used to
embed scripts into an HTML document
Script are executed in the client's Web browser
Scripts can live in the <head> and in the <body>
sections
Supported client-side scripting
languages:
JavaScript (it is not Java!)
VBScript
JScript
29
The <script> Tag – Example
<html>
scripts-example.html
<head>
<title>JavaScript Example</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function sayHello() {
document.write(
"<p><b>Hello World!<\/b>");
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<script type=
"text/javascript">
sayHello();
</script>
</body>
</html>
30
Using Scripts
Live Demo
<head> Section: <style>
The <style> </style> tag embeds formatting
information (CSS styles) into a HTML page
<html>
style-example.html
<head>
<style type="text/css">
p { font-size: 12pt; line-height: 12pt }
p:first-letter { font-size: 200%; float: left }
span { text-transform: uppercase }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>Styles demo.</p>
<span>Test uppercase</span>.
</body>
</html>
32
Embedding CSS Styles
Live Demo
Comments: <!-- --> Tag
Comments can exist anywhere between the
<html></html> tags
Comments start with <!-- and end with -->
<!–- BASD Logo (it is a GIF file with
transparent background) -->
<img src="logo.gif" alt="BASD Logo">
<!–- Hyperlink to BASD official Web site -->
<a href="http://www.devbg.org/">BASD Home</a>
<!–- Show the news table -->
<table class="newstable">
...
34
<body> Section: Introduction
The <body> section describes the viewable
portion of the page
Starts
after the <head> </head> section
Begins with <body> and ends with </body>
<html>
<head><title>Test page</title></head>
<body>
This is the Web page body!
</body>
</html>
35
<body> Section: Attributes
The <body> tag has the following attributes:
background
Background image file
="URL"
bgcolor
Background color
="color"
text
Default text color
="color"
link
Hyperlink color
="color"
vlink
Visited hyperlink color
="color"
Example:
<body background="texture.gif" text="#238E23">
* For color codes, see www.webreference.com/html/tools/colorizer/
36
Text Styling without CSS
Text can be formatted
as headings or regular
paragraph text
Use these consistently!
<p></p> by default
doubles the spaces
after each paragraph
<br /> is weird: the
trailing “/” makes it
XHTML compliant
Different styles of
heading are
available:
<h1></h1>
Heading 1
<h2></h2> Heading 2
<h3></h3> Heading 3
<h4></h4> Heading 4
<h5></h5> Heading 5
<h6></h6> Heading 6
Paragraph
<p></p>
Line break
<br />
37
Text Formatting
Text formatting tags modify the text between
the opening tag and the closing tag
Ex. <b>Hello</b> makes “Hello” bold
<b></b>
<i></i>
<u></u>
<sup></sup>
<sub></sub>
<strong></strong>
<em></em>
<pre></pre>
<blockquote></blockquote>
<del></del>
bold
italicized
underlined
Samplesuperscript
Samplesubscript
strong
emphasized
Preformatted text
Quoted text block
Deleted text – strike through
38

HTML Special Characters
Live Demo
Using <DIV> and <SPAN>
Block and Inline Elements
Block and Inline Elements
Block elements act as if
there is a break before
and after them
<div> is a block element
Other block elements are <table>, <hr>,
headings, lists, <center>, <p> and etc.
Inline elements don’t break the text before
and after them
<span> is inline element
Most HTML elements are inline, e.g. <a>
66
The <div> Tag
<div> creates logical
divisions within a page
Block style element
Used with CSS
Example:
div-and-span.html
<div align="center" style="font-size:24;
color:red">DIV example</div>
<p>This one is <span style="color:red; fontweight:bold">only a test</span>.</p>
67
<DIV>
Live Demo
The <span> Tag
Inline style element
Useful for modifying a specific portion
of text
Don't create a separate area
(paragraph) in the document
Very useful with CSS
span.html
<p>This one is <span style="color:red; fontweight:bold">only a test</span>.</p>
<p>This one is another <span style="font-size:32;
font-weight:bold">TEST</span>.</p>
