Step 4. Ask this question “What is preview?” Did you ask? I didn’t hear it. Say it louder. Now I hear it. Preview means, you can test your recipe before you serve.  You just created a blank web page that will go to an Internet site. Ask this question “really?” The answer is yes. Let us see in the pictures.

Type something on the page "Normal" Look whatever you typed on the other page, would appear here

Step 5. Now let us look in the HTML page. Can you find out the line you typed before in the page Normal, in this HTML page?

Do you see? Try to remember the Words head, title and body.

Step 6. The words I asked to remember, are the main building blocks of a web page. You must be wondering that why I did not mention anything about the letter “p” sitting in the brackets. In the web page we put some letters with in the brackets to arrange or decorate words or sentences.

Some Rules.

Whatever we use to build a web page must stay within brackets.We use the same word to start and the same word to end. The end word should have “/” before it.

Can you tell me where starts and ends?

Step 7. Ask again what "HTML" is doing at the top and bottom? You are a genius and always ask good questions. HTML starts and closes a web page. The computer will understand you that you are putting a web page with a block beginning with " " and ending with "

Step 8. Since you are genius, you might have asked this questions what “head, title , meta name and body” are doing there?

  • "head" is sub-block within the html block that holds the information that computer should process before loading the page.
  • "meta name" is a sub-sub-block holds the information that could be searched by the viewers.
  • "title" is also a sub-sub-block holds the name you want to display on a web page. Here "new_page_2.htm" is the title of your page you just created.
