WWW (World Wide Web) pages are written using
HTML (HyperText Markup Language).
HTML tags control in part the representation of the
WWW page when viewed with a web browser.
Examples of browsers used to view web pages include:
- Netscape
- Internet Explorer
This document describes some of the version 3.2 features of HTML
and extensions recognized by Netscape 3.0 / IE 3.0 or later browsers.
In describing HTML the aim has been to
concentrate on the more widely used and useful features.
However, in many ways this still remains a personal selection.
The following symbol is used in this document:
It is a hypertext link to a web page containing examples
of HTML features under discussion.
The reader can if they wish modify the text to try
out their own ideas of style and formatting.
The best way of using this feature is to open
a new window containing this link.
Then after trying out the features close the window to continue
browsing the original document.
In Netscape this is achieved by moving the cursor over
the symbol and pressing the right mouse button.
This selects a series of options contained in a pop up window.
Select the option to start a new window / browser with this link.
