HTML Tags 2

The Body


<BODY>—</BODY>         The <BODY> tag encloses all text, images, and other elements 
                                              that  will be visible to the user on the web page.


The <BODY> tags contain the content of the HTML page and to identify this section it is surrounded by <BODY> and </BODY>. The text between the <BODY> tags is displayed inside the browser window. In our case, we have the text “This is where the body of the document...” You will notice that this is displayed inside the browser window.

Heading


<H1>—</H1> <H2>—</H2>             The six levels of text headings ranging from the largest
<H3>—</H3><H4>—</H4>              (<H1>) to the smallest (<H6>). Text headings appear in
<H5>—</H5> <H6>—</H6>             bold face font.
ALIGN=Option                                    The alignment of the heading.
(LEFT|RIGHT|CENTER)


Headings help define the format and structure of the document. They provide valuable tool in highlighting important information, headings and sub headings and the nature of the document as a whole.
As you can see, the heading tags come in pairs with the opening and closing tags. Any text surrounded by these tags will be displayed differently depending on the heading number. There are six levels of headings in HTML specified by <H1>, <H2>, <H3>, <H4>, <H5> and <H6> tags. The use of these in an HTML document are as follows:


<H1> First Level Heading </H1>
<H2> Second Level Heading </H2>
<H3> Third Level Heading </H3>
<H4> Fourth Level Heading </H4>
<H5> Fifth Level Heading </H5>
<H6> Sixth Level Heading </H6>


When you use these tags, no other tags can be used inside these tags and if they are used, they will be ignored. Heading or sub heading can be aligned to the left, right or centre using 'ALIGN' attribute. If it is necessary <H1 ALIGN = CENTER> Title of the heading </H1> can be used to align the title at the centre of the web page. These values can be assigned to ALIGN and their 'LEFT', 'RIGHT' and 'CENTER'.
