Introduction
HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is the foundational language for creating web pages and defining their structure. It is not a programming language but a markup language that uses elements and tags to describe content. Key Concepts: Elements and Tags: HTML documents are built using elements, which represent different parts of a web page (e.g., headings, paragraphs, images). Elements are defined using tags, which are keywords enclosed in angle brackets (e.g., <h1>, <p>, <img>). Most elements have an opening tag and a closing tag (e.g., <h1> and </h1>), with the content placed in between. The closing tag includes a forward slash before the element name. Some elements are self-closing and do not require a separate closing tag (e.g., <br> for a line break, <img> for an image). Basic Document Structure: Every HTML page begins with a declaration, which defines the document type. The entire HTML content is enclosed within the and tags. The section contains metadata about the page (e.g., title, character set, links to stylesheets), which is not directly visible on the page. The section contains all the visible content of the web page. Example of a basic HTML structure: Code <title>My First Web Page</title> <h1>Welcome to my page!</h1> <p>This is a paragraph of text.</p> Common Elements: Headings: <h1> to <h6> (for different levels of headings). Paragraphs: <p> (for blocks of text). Links: <a> (for creating hyperlinks to other pages or resources). Images: <img> (for embedding images). Lists: <ul> (unordered list), <ol> (ordered list), and <li> (list item). How to get started: Create a new text file and save it with a .html extension (e.g., index.html). Write your HTML code in the file using a text editor (like VS Code, Notepad++, or Sublime Text). Open the .html file in a web browser to view your web page.

HTML Coding
HTML images refer to the use of images within a web page, embedded and controlled using HTML elements and attributes. The primary element for embedding images is the <img> tag.
Here are the key aspects of HTML images:
  • <img> Tag: 
    This self-closing tag is used to embed an image. It does not require a closing </img> tag.
  • src Attribute: 
    This is a required attribute that specifies the source (URL or file path) of the image file to be displayed.
