<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>This is info for search engines</TITLE>
<BODY>
<h2><strong><center><font color="#CC3366">This Is My One Line Web Page</font></center></strong>< /FONT> </h2>
</BODY>
</html>


 

Now lets add some text!

First add a <P> (paragraph) tag to start the first line of text.  It goes right after the </h2> tag.
Then just start typing what you want to show up on your page.

<body>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<h2><center><font color="#CC3366"> This is my one line web page</h2></font></br>
<BR> <P>
"Well Bones, do the new medical facilities meet with your approval?" -- Kirk
<FONT face=""Times New Roman color="#993399"></STRONG>
<P>
"They do not. It's like working in a damn computer center"  -- McCoy (Star Trek)
<FONT face=""Times New Roman color="#000000"> <P>"Spock, will you <em> <STRONG>please</STRONG> </I> sit down!" -- Kirk (Star Trek)
<P>"Humour. It is a difficult concept" -- Saavik (Star Trek II)
<P> "Who's been holding up the damn elevator?" -- McCoy (Star Trek II)
<P>"Logic is the beginning of wisdom; not the end." -- Spock (Star Trek VI)
</body>
</html>


Notice how the <P> tag moves your text to a new line.  I also used the <em> tag that you learned earlier.

But I also snuck in another parameter that you haven't seen before in the <FONT> tag.  I changed the font on you from Verdana to Times New Roman.  And I used <STRONG> instead of <B>.  The
result is the same.  Remember, there is always more than one way to do something. 

It looks like I changed the size of the text, but I didn't. The Times New Roman font is just a little bit smaller that the font Verdana.

I could have changed the size though.  The tag to do this is:

<font face= "Verdana" size= "3"></STRONG></FONT>

It changes "Hey, Look at me!" to "Hey, Look at me!"

I don't know if you noticed or not, but tags can be in either upper or lower case. 

Font parameters:

  • SIZE:             size of the font
  • COLOR:          color of the text
  • FACE:            set the typestyle for text
  • POINT-SIZE
  • WEIGHT

    I use lower case in my web pages because someday I might want to use XML (Extensible Markup Language).  XML is a markup language for documents containing structured information and requires all tags to be in lower case. 

    THERE IS A BETTER WAY TO DO THE THINGS WE HAVE DONE SO FAR.

    AND THAT IS BY USING HTML AND CSS TOGETHER
