The first tag on each page should always be this tag. It should go at the very top, before the html tag. You'll notice that, unlike the other tags, this one begins with an exalamation mark! Technically it is not a tag but an instruction to the brower on how to interpret the rest of the document. For HTML 5 we simply refer to the type as html. For previous versions of HTML there were different types that it could be so it was important to specify which. The head of the html document is where ancilliary information goes.
This is information relating to the document but not directly part of the document. There are many items which can go here but the template above includes the basic items which every page should have. The title tag can be quite important given all the places it is used. You should take the time to make sure it is descriptive and concise.
Search engines generally only show the first 65 characters of the title give or take a few characters. You should aim to keep your title to less than this amount. A well written title can encourage more people to click on your page when it shows up on Search Engine Results Pages. Next in the head we have the two meta tags for description and keywords.
These are used by search engines to varying degrees and can also be used by other systems such as when your page is linked to on social media and other sharing sites. The description is used to provide a summary of what the page is about. Search engines will typically place this under your title in their results pages.
Search engines generally only show the first characters of the description give or take a few characters. PHP functions. A few code examples will make it clearer what we mean by this.
Thanks for reading! Find and fix web accessibility issues with ease using axe DevTools Pro. Try for free! When I reference images, I almost always do something like this: That is a relative file path, but it begins at the root public directory of the site.
Common sense stuff. In order to get this functionality back and have relative file paths that do not change, use this bit of PHP smartness: Basic stuff for all you programmers but that one had me stumped for ages. We have also included an alt alternative attribute. In this attribute, you specify descriptive text for users who cannot see the image, possibly because of the following reasons:.
The keywords for alt text are "descriptive text". The alt text you write should provide the reader with enough information to have a good idea of what the image conveys.
In this example, our current text of "My test image" is no good at all. A much better alternative for our Firefox logo would be "The Firefox logo: a flaming fox surrounding the Earth. Note: Find out more about accessibility in our accessibility learning module.
Heading elements allow you to specify that certain parts of your content are headings — or subheadings. In the same way that a book has the main title, chapter titles, and subtitles, an HTML document can too.
The browser ignores comments as it renders the code. In other words, they are not visible on the page - just in the code. HTML comments are a way for you to write helpful notes about your code or logic.
Note: You'll see that your heading level 1 has an implicit style. Don't use heading elements to make text bigger or bold, because they are used for accessibility and other reasons such as SEO. Try to create a meaningful sequence of headings on your pages, without skipping levels. Add your sample text you should have it from What will your website look like? A lot of the web's content is lists and HTML has special elements for these.
Marking up lists always consists of at least 2 elements. It's a horrible thing to do. Very useful for design mockups W3C objected to the self closing tag. HTML is not a preprocessor language.
This solution is unstable and correct behaviour is not guaranteed. Ian Devlin - Saying "It's a horrible things to do. If horrible, then why is that? Are you thinking server side includes?
Including files with script js, php, ruby? If you have a better way, say what that is, or say nothing at all. And BTW, in my estimation, the alternatives all have significant downsides, mostly more complicated code if someone only knows HTML and potentially "server-lack-of-control" that make this approach something to consider.
