any WYSIWYG or Text Editor and Web Browser. If not, then go through gedit Text Editor and Firefox tutorials on this website. |
Slide 4: System Requirements | To record this tutorial, I’m using
However you may use any other editor or browser of your choice. |
Slide 5: Code Files | The files used in this tutorial are available in the Code Files link on this tutorial page.
Please download and extract them. |
Slide 6: Formatting Tags | HTML allows us to do basic formatting of the content.
Formatting tags are exactly like the ones that are there in any word processor application. |
Slide 6: Formatting Tags | Some of the formatting tags are:
|
Slide 6: Formatting Tags |
We will learn them one by one. |
Slide 7: HTML Headings | In any document, we use headings for various purposes in various sizes.
HTML allows us to create headings with six different sizes. Heading tag will start from h1 for large headings and end with h6 for smaller ones. A line space will be added automatically before and after the headings. |
Open MyFirstPage.html in gedit | Let us open our file MyFirstPage.html, which we created earlier.
The same is available in the Code Files link. |
Point to
<h1> Welcome to Farmer's Market </h1> |
In our code, we have already used <h1> heading tag. |
<h2> Welcome to Farmer's Market </h2>
<h3> Welcome to Farmer's Market </h3> <h4> Welcome to Farmer's Market </h4> <h5> Welcome to Farmer's Market </h5> <h6> Welcome to Farmer's Market </h6> |
Let me add a few more lines of code to this program.
Type the following lines with proper indentation, below the h1 heading tag. |
Point to each line | Here I have used all the six heading tags one after another. |
Press Ctrl + S | Press Ctrl + S keys to save this change. |
Now let’s see the output on the browser. | |
Open MyFirstPage.html in Firefox | Go to the folder where the file is saved.
Right-click and open with your preferred web browser. |
Point to the different lines one-by-one | Observe the differences in the size of the heading “Welcome to Farmer's Market”. |
Using appropriate heading as per your need, you can create headings of different sizes. | |
Switch to gedit
Press Ctrl + Z |
Switch back to the editor.
And undo the changes by pressing Ctrl + Z keys . |
Add
<b>Tomato:</b> <i>is an edible <u>fruit</u></i> |
Next we will see how to format the text to make it bold, italic and so on.
|
Point to the new formatted code.
<b>Tomato:</b> <i>is an edible <u>fruit</u></i> |
This line of code will demonstrate the use of bold, italic and underline.
Here I have used the tag <b> for bold. So any text written in between these <b> tags will appear bold in the output. |
Point to
<i>is an edible <u>fruit</u></i> |
Likewise, the text within the <i> tag will be italic and <u> tag will be underlined.
Please look at the way I have written them here. |
Point to.
<i>is an edible <u>fruit</u></i> |
I have used the underline tag inside the italic tag.
This way of writing code is called as Nested elements. |
While using a tag inside another tag,
always remember to close the tags in the reverse order. | |
Highlight again | Here I have opened the italic tag first and then opened the underline tag. |
Highlight again | While closing, I have closed the underline tag first and then the italic tag. |
Follow the same procedure while using nested elements in your future codes. | |
Press Ctrl + S | Save the file. |
Switch to firefox and refresh the page. | Let’s switch to the browser and refresh the page to see the output.
Observe the change in the content that is displayed. |
Switch to the editor | Let’s come back to the editor. |
Point to the br tag in the code | To create a line break, we have to use the break tag.
Here we already have a break tag in our code. |
Delete br tag >> Press Ctrl+S | So, let me delete this break tag and save the file. |
Switch to firefox and refresh the page. | Let’s switch to the browser and refresh the page. |
Point to the line space between the first two lines. | Notice here, the line space between the first two lines is now reduced.
The existing line space is the one that is created by the heading tag. |
Switch to the editor >> Ctrl+Z | Switch back to the editor and undo the changes.
Save the file. |
Switch to firefox and refresh the page. | Now come back to the browser and refresh the page.
Notice the line space. |
Slide 8: Break tag | Note that the break tag
|
Switch to the editor | Let’s come back to the editor now. |
Add:
<br/> <i> Price: <del>Rs.20/Kg</del> Rs.15/Kg <sup>(Today's offer)</sup> <i> |
I will add a few more lines to this code.
Please do so in your file, too. Notice here - I have used the strikethrough and superscript tags. |
Press Ctrl + S | Let’s save the code. |
Switch to the browser | Then switch to the browser and refresh the page. |
Point to Rs.20/kg | Notice the change - the word Rs.20 per kg has been struck through. |
Point to Today’s offer | And the word “Today’s offer” appears as a superscript. |
Switch to the editor. | Switch back to the editor once again. |
Point to del tag | The content written within the <del> tag will be struck through. |
Point to sup tag | And the content written within the <sup> tag will appear as superscript. |
Overwrite sup in to sub | For subscript, we should use the <sub> tag.
Please try this option on your own. |
Type <hr> | In the next line, I will type the <hr> tag.
This tag will create a horizontal line. |
Press Ctrl + S >> Switch to browser. | Save the code and switch to the browser. |
Refresh | Refresh the webpage. |
Point to the line | Notice the horizontal line. |
Switch to editor | Come back to the editor. |
Type the code:
<p>Tomatoes contain <small>folic acid,</small> and <big>vitamins</big> A, C, <del>D</del><ins> and E.</ins></p> |
Let me add some more lines of code here, after the '''<hr> tag'''.
Observe that I have used the small and big tags here, along with ins tag. |
Press Ctrl + S >> Switch to browser. | Save the code and switch to the browser. |
Refresh webpage | Refresh the webpage. |
Point to the line in the webpage | Notice that the words “folic acid” appears smaller in size.
And the word “Vitamins” appear bigger in size, compared to the normal font size. |
Come back to editor and show the code here
Highlight small and big tags. |
Let’s come back to our code file.
This effect is achieved by using the small and big tags. The small tag make the content smaller and the big tag makes it larger. |
Point to deleted and inserted text. | Let’s go back to our webpage.
Also notice that, the words “and E” are underlined. |
Show the code here | But recall that in our code, we have used insert tag.
The browser will print the underline and insert in the same style. The insert tag is used to mention that the inserted content should be underlined. |
Slide 9: Anchor Tag | Now let’s learn about anchor tag.
In our webpage we could have many links that navigate us to either-
|

Press Ctrl + S | Then save the file. |
Switch to browser >> Refresh | Switch to the browser and refresh the page. |
Point to “Click here” | Here we can see the new text “Click Here” is displayed. |
Hover the mouse | The text appears to be hyperlinked.
And when we hover the mouse, the cursor changes into a hand icon. |
Click on Click Here | But when we click on it, nothing happens.
Let’s find out why that is so. |

In the next line after Click here, type the following code. |
Press Ctrl + S | Now save the code. |
Switch to browser >> Refresh | Then switch to the browser and refresh the webpage. |
Point to the Links | We can see two links here.
Click here and Local File Link |
Click on Click here | In the first case “Click here”, I haven’t given any link and have just kept it as blank.
If the href value is empty, it will keep us on the same page. |
Click on Local File Link
Show both the code and output |
In the next one, I have given the name of the HTML file which we have used for assignment.
Clicking on this link will take us to the mentioned page. |
Slide 11: Redirecting Link | While redirecting to a local link,
|
Slide 12a: Anchor Tag - Target |
|
Slide 12b: Anchor Tag - Target | The values are:
|
Switch to editor | Let us switch back to the editor to try out one of the attributes. |
Point to
<br/> <a href="http://spoken-tutorial.org" ''target=”_blank”''> External Link </a> Highlight space before target |
Let’s add this line of code here.
In this line of code, I have given an external website link and set the target to a blank page. This means the specified website will open in a new tab. The spaces are only for readability of the code. |
Press Ctrl + S | Save the page and switch to the browser. |
Switch to browser >> Refresh | Refresh the page to update the change.
Click on the External Link. The specified link opens in a new tab. |
This is how we use formatting tags in HTML. | |
