Questions? Internet Safety? Social Media? Edmodo? Cyberbullying?

 Open the ‘Notepad’ utility on your personal computer or laptop  Notepad is a basic text entry and editing tool that allows simple formatting of text  Almost all computers on the market today come with Notepad pre-installed, making it ideal for rookie web-designers—like you and I  While there are programs that can write most HTML automatically, manually typing code in notepad is the best way to learn  A blank notepad

 When it comes to simple HTML pages, the first line of code is always the same “tag”, or piece of code  The first tag used to initiate the code of an HTML page is: 

 Create a line break after the first piece of code:   *Notice we did not not “close” our opening tag, which will later be typed as: ▪ - It is the same code with a forward slash before the letters of the tag ▪ All kinds of HTML tags are closed with this pattern -- “ ”  On the next line below the tag, open your second tag:  ▪ The “head”, or header tag, will usually contain information about the website itself, and is not necessarily displayed on the page

 On the last slide we left off with:   One tag that always belongs “within” the tag is the tag  Whatever text is within the tags will become the page title ▪ The page title is the name of a website you see at the very top of your browser window  For now, we can make the title “My New Website”, so put that text directly after the tag

SO FAR WE HAVE:   ▪ My First Website  Next, we will need to close the and tags AFTER STEP 4 WE SHOULD HAVE:   ▪ My First Website    Again, notice that we did not close the initial tag—something we won’t do until the end

TAKE A LOOK AT THE NEW TAGS AND CONTENT:   ▪ ▪ My First Website ▪  ▪ This is the body of the website  WHAT IS THE TAG?  The body of the page is also known as the main content of the page  All of the text, HTML tags, and other content that lies between the two tags will control nearly everything you see on the webpage  For now, let’s keep it simple and get some basic text to display as an HTML website.  As you can see to the left, our body will only contain the text:  “This is the body of the website!”

THE LAST PIECE OF CODE   ▪ ▪ My First Website ▪  ▪ This is the body of the website   WHAT DOES THIS DO?  Closing the tag like so:  ▪ Should only come after you’ve closed all other tags on the page ▪ Signals the very end of the webpage, and the last line of code

 Ok, so the code is finished… Now what?  We need to save the untitled txt file under the correct file format  If we saved this as a “.txt” document, which is the default file type for Notepad, a web browser would not be able to recognize it as HTML code and would not create a page  So, instead of leaving the default file type upon saving, we will need to give it a special naming convention  In Notepad, click:  File  Save As ▪ Determine a location to save where you can find the file easily, so you can open the page with ease  Within the “Save As” menu/window, click the drop-down menu called “Save as type”  In the dropdown menu, click All Files  Finally, in the file name text box, save the HTML as:  firstwebsite.html  website.html  Or something similar, the important thing is that the suffix is “.html” and not “.txt”

 Locate the folder/directory where you saved the HTML document  Double click the file, and your default web browser should open and display the body of the webpage that we predetermined as:  “This is the body of the website”  If double-clicking the file does not open it in a web browser, try this:  Right-click the saved HTML file  Click “Open with” ▪ At that point you should be able to select your web browser of choice to display the newly created site ▪ If problems still persist, first check to make sure your file has been saved as a ‘.html’, and that all your tags are in the correct places

 From here, the possibilities are unlimited  The body of an HTML file can contain hundreds of different tags ▪ Soon we will learn more!  Luckily, most tags work in similar ways to the tags we just reviewed  Other tags can: ▪ Add color to the page ▪ Create tables or dividers on the page ▪ Add custom font formatting ▪ Create paragraphs, line breaks, and borders ▪ And much, much more…  -- view a list of some of the most common HTML tags and what they dohttp://  -- an entire course on HTML web design, and a number of other related subjects   Scroll to bottom  Click HTML

 Keep exploring new HTML tags and build your website  Add colors  Change font size  Add links to other websites  Add new headings  Add sections to your page --  Add a picture to your page  Tables, lists,  What else can you find?  Ask questions!  -- view a list of some of the most common HTML tags and what they dohttp://  -- an entire course on HTML web design, and a number of other related subjects   Scroll to bottom  Click HTML Next week we will learn more advanced ways to make your website look and feel more exciting!
