HTML Overview, Learning HTML.HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. HTML is not a programming language rather it can be more accurately defined as a document rendering language. Programming languages such as C++, C# and VB need to be complied in order to work, while HTML is rendered in software applications, more specifically in web browsers. The HTML language instructs the web browser on how to render the HTML page (Text, Images and other objects).
The instructions within HTML pages are called elements. Elements contain tags such as "<b>" which instructs the web browser for format the text field with a Bold format. We will learn more tags in the essential tags section.
HTML is a very easy language to learn. With a little practice you will be coding HTML like a professional.
