2nd Blog Post

The second day of class basically began with a revision of the previous class. We also did in-class activities on writing simple html codes just for practice. Though this can be very tedious at times, it is also fun and can be perfected with lots of practice. In addition, the class learnt that the following html code: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> must be placed at the top when writing html codes in order for it to follow the correct procedure. We also discussed in depth some notes on html tags we learnt from the previous class for example title, head etc. and we learnt about other tags such as: <prev> (which eliminates white space and changes the font too), <l-- (which is used when writing a comment), <br/> (which gives a new line. It is called an empty element because it doesn't have any content), </blockquote (which is used when you wish to cite where you got info. from) etc. Whilst we were learning about these tags we also practiced using.
P.S.  Codes that are in green are comments, codes that are in red are values, codes that are in blue are html tags, and codes that are in grey are attributes.

  1. Hey Yanikee,

    Guess who?! Yes it is! It's me! Sir!!! 2nd blog posts and counting.

    Enhancements are as follows:
    *<prev> is not a html tag. It's called <pre>
    *<!-- This is how you write an html comment -->
    * P.S. The colour is specific to SMULTRON so don't get too 'caught' up in the colour codes... but the colours do help
