What is HTML?
HTML is a subset of a markup type setting program called SGML, still used by publishers.
Hyper Text Markup Language
Hyper Text means that HTML documents could be linked together across the web based on hot word reference links.
What are Tags?
<html></html> The greater than and less than markers identify the tags, so they are not confused with other regular or formatted text.
Is this really programming?
JavaScript programs can be inserted in to HTML, because it is not a programming language and sometimes needs help to do any more than formatting text and gathering user input in forms. <form></form>
Is it difficult? (Take an easy pre-test and see!)
<form> form, <b> bold, <i> italics, <font> to change fonts.
