style tag in HTML

Hi Everyone,

Good day. Last time we discussed about the <title> tag. Now we will talk about the <style> tag.

The <style> tag is used to define style information for an HTML document. Inside the <style> element you specify how HTML elements should render in a browser. Each HTML document can contain multiple <style> tags. To know more about <style> tag, click here.

Let's see the code below:

 <html>  
 <head>  
   <style>  
     h1 {color:green;}  
     p {color:blue;}  
   </style>  
 </head>  
 <body>  
  <h1>Some heading..</h1>  
  <p>Some paragraph . . .</p>  
 </body>  
 </html>

This code will result something like below:

The <style> tag gives design to whatever elements in HTML you specify. This is commonly known as CSS - Cascading Style Sheets. More info.
CSS is another big topic that will surely interest you. We will tackle this CSS sooner. But first we will just focus on the elements that composes an HTML document.

Hope you learn new today. On the next post, we will tackle to our next tag, it is <base> tag.
Thanks for visiting. Have a nice day.

title tag in HTML

Hi Everyone,

Good day to all. Last time we knew what composes the <head> element. Now let's discuss about the <title> tag.

<title> tag is required in all HTML documents and it defines the title of the document.
The <title> tag element:

defines a title in the browser toolbar
provides a title for the page when it is added to favorites
displays a title for the page in search-engine results

Let us see the code below:

 <html>  
 <head>  
   <title>A title</title>  
 </head>  
 <body>  
   Some contents here...  
 </body>  
 </html>

And let's take a look to the result:

Have you notice almost all websites also include an image or commonly called as their logo in the title bar? I'm sure you are wondering now how to add a logo to our html document.

Now lets talk about it. This can easily be achieved through this code snippet below.

 <link rel="shortcut icon" href="path/to/your/image" type="image/png" />

This <link> tag is also an element in HTML. It defines a link between a document and an external resource. Lets talk about <link> deeper on the next tutorials. You can also see it here.

The rel attribute of <link> tag specifies the relationship between the current document and the linked document/resource. More info.
The href attribute of <link> tag specifies the location (URL) of the external resource (most often a style sheet file but in this tutorial it is an image). More info.
The type attribute of <link> tag specifies the Internet media type (formerly known as MIME type) of the linked document/resource. More info.

Now let's see the full code example:

 <html>   
 <head>   
   <title>Title with icon</title>  
   <link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/icon.png" type="image/png" />   
 </head>   
 <body>   
   Some contents here...   
 </body>   
 </html>

That will output something like image below:

Hope you learn new today. On the next post, we will tackle about the next tag. It is the <style> tag. Thank you for visiting.

It is written in the form of HTML elements consisting of tags enclosed in angle brackets (like <html>). Click this link for more info about HTML.

See this code below.

 <!DOCTYPE html>

   <h1>Heading here</h1>

echo in PHP

Hi Everyone,

Good day, its me again. I want to share to you a snippet of a php code.
The code below simply print a string or a word.

String is a data type used in programming, such as an integer and floating point unit, but is used to represent a text rather than numbers. Click this link to know more about Strings and other data types.

Here it goes,

 <?php   
    echo "Hello World";  
 ?>

This will print Hello World in the browser when you run it. See the image below:

Hope you learn even a little. I will make it more detailed for the next post.
