#9 - xHTML Guide : Meta Tags



Ever wondered how Search Engines find websites? Well basically this is what they
use: meta elements. Search engines usually catalogue sites by following links to
pages on sites they find. These meta elements have information about the page on
them. Have a look at the following extract from some code for an example:


‘’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’
1 <head>
2 <meta name = "keywords" content = "learn, makeuseof how to, computer help,
    technology, muo, tech" />
3 <meta name = "description" content = "lots of great articles and information to help
     you on your adventures
4 through cyberspace and gain the technological advantage." />
5 </head>
’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’

#8 - xHTML Guide : Tables





Is this as difficult as your multiplication tables? Of course not, if you go about it the
right way. If you’re just starting out with this concept and I assume you are, then it is
usually best to draw the table you want to make on a piece of paper like I have
below:

#7 - xHTML Guide : Lists



Alright now we’re going to have to organise a few things, like a shopping list. There
are two types of lists. They are the:



  • Ordered List (numbers, alphabets, roman numerals)
  • Unordered List (bullet points)

For an ordered list you would use the following tags = <ol> </ol>
For an un-ordered list you would use the following tags = <ul> </ul>
For example:

#5 - xHTML Guide : Images




2.3 – Is your picture worth a thousand words? – Images
Up to now, we’ve only talked about text and what it can do on a website, but
there’s still more. Want to make your website look even more enticing than just
fancy fonts? Try getting some good images to make you site really give the
audience something to look at. Be careful of copyright laws though; best to take
your own pictures if you intend to put your website up on the Internet.


The most popular image formats are the following:

  •  GIF = Graphics Interchange Format
  •  JPEG = Joint Photographic Experts Group
  •  PNG = Portable Network Graphics

#4 - xHTML Guide : Head And Body Tags






In most cases, inside the <html> tag there is a <head> and a <body>.
The <head> is usually used for scripting in CSS  and JavaScript whereas the <body> is usually the content of the page.      

Some content can be changed using the scripting in the <head>, but the <body> is
usually the content that is unchangeable on the page. An example would be a
short spiel about the website that you are visiting.
You can make changes to the content’s formatting using CSS (Section 3) in the
<head>. However you can also make changes to the formatting in the <body>.
A commonly used set of tags that are used in the body are the header fonts. These
header fonts range in size and strength/boldness. Just see for yourself below:

#3 - xHTML Guide : Starting With Your First Code






Alright, here’s the beginning of the journey. Let’s start with just putting something on
the screen on this web page. First you’ll need to know what <tags> are.
XHTML code uses start and end tags to sort out what is going on with each element
of the page.


Here is an example of a start tag: <html>
Here is an example of an end tag: </html>



One has the element name enclosed in the pointy brackets and
the other is the same but has a slash before the element name.
