Project Report on HTML

INTRODUCTION
OVERVIEW:

This is dynamic website which gives all the information about a book store, helps the user to find books of their choice with little bit of introduction about the book with ease.

The website has been developed in HTML, JSP and HTML is a markup language which is in reality a backbone of any site, every site can’t structured without the knowledge of html.

If we make our web page only with the help of html, than we can’t add many of the effective features in a web page, for making a web page more effective we use various platforms such as JSP.

So here we are using these entire features to make our web pages more effective as well as efficient.
And to make our web pages dynamic we are using JSP here.

HTML (HYPERTEXTMARKUP LANGUAGE)

HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language, and it is the language in which, until recently, virtually all Web pages were written. Now, don’t break out in hives when you hear the word “language.” You don’t need complex logical or mathematical formulas to work with HTML, and you don’t need to think like a programmer to use it. Computer programmers must think through the tasks that they want their programs to perform, and then develop an elaborate (and usually complicated) series of instructions to tell the computer what to do. Although you do need to do some thinking and planning when you use HTML, it is not nearly that difficult.

So, how does Hypertext Markup Language work?
Hypertext refers to the way in which Web pages (HTML documents) are linked together. When you click a link in a Web page, you are using hypertext. It is this system of linking documents that has made the World Wide Web the global phenomenon it has become.

Markup Language describes how HTML works. With a markup language, you simply “mark up” a text document with tags that tell a Web browser how to structure it. HTML originally was developed with the intent of defining the structure of documents (headings, paragraphs, lists, and so forth) to facilitate the sharing of scientific information between researchers. All you need to do to use HTML is to learn what type of markup to use to get the results you want

FOUR KEY CONCEPTS
The first step toward understanding and working with HTML is learning the basic terms that describe most of the functions of this language. You will come across these terms repeatedly as you use HTML and if you understand them, you will have progressed a long way toward comprehending HTML, not to mention XHTML.

ELEMENTS
All HTML pages are made up of elements. Think of an element as a container in which a portion of a page is placed. Whatever is contained inside the element will take on the characteristics of that element. For example, to identify a heading on a page, you would enclose it in a heading element

. If you want to create a table, you put the table information inside the table element
. To construct a form, you need the form element
.

TAGS

Often, you’ll find the terms element and tag used interchangeably. It’s fairly common, but not strictly accurate. An element is made up of two tags: an opening tag and a closing tag. Although it might seem somewhat picky to make this distinction, when you begin to work with XHTML (Extensible Hypertext Markup Language), it will be a very important difference to remember. If you get into the habit of distinguishing elements and tags from the very beginning, you’ll save yourself some confusion down the line.

All tags are constructed the same way. The tag begins with a “less than” sign (<), then the element name, followed by a “greater than” sign (>). For example, an opening tag for the paragraph element would look like this:

. The only difference in a closing tag is that the closing tag includes a slash (/) before the element name:

. Your content goes between the tags. A simple paragraph might look like this:


This is an HTML paragraph.

Some elements do not use closing tags because they do not enclose content. These are called empty elements. For example, the line break element
does not require a closing tag. In the case of empty elements, add a closing slash after the element name, like this:
. When a browser sees the slash, it will recognize the element as one that does not need a separate, closing tag.
