Secrets of HTML Tags

When creating your websites to be W3C compliant, you know that HTML tags are important. You will need to include these tags throughout the pages and be sure to use them in the proper format so that your pages come out the way that you want them to. Here are some common html tags that you will need to know when creating your pages. When you learn these tags, you will be set to create compliant pages that look great and contain all your information. Once you have created a template for the layout of your pages, you can reuse the same one each time, changing only the specifics such as the title, the font type, color, size, etc.

Use the code below: <link rel="shortcut icon"href="/favicon.
