Welcome to the HTML JavaScript Tutorial! In this comprehensive guide, we'll dive into the world of HTML and JavaScript, and learn how they work together to make interactive web pages.
By the end of this tutorial, you'll be able to create dynamic, responsive, and engaging websites. Let's get started! š
HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) is the standard markup language used to create web pages. It defines the structure of a web page, including text, images, videos, links, and more.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>My First Web Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to My First Web Page!</h1>
</body>
</html>š” Pro Tip: Always start your HTML documents with a <!DOCTYPE html> declaration to ensure compatibility with different web browsers.
JavaScript is a programming language that adds interactivity and dynamic content to web pages. It can manipulate HTML elements, change CSS styles, control multimedia, and more.
JavaScript is typically included in an HTML page using the <script> tag.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>My Interactive Web Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1 id="title">Welcome to My Interactive Web Page!</h1>
<script>
document.getElementById("title").innerText = "Hello, World!";
</script>
</body>
</html>In this example, we've added an id attribute to the <h1> tag, and used the document.getElementById() function to manipulate that specific element with JavaScript. The innerText property allows us to change the text content of the element.
What is the purpose of the `<!DOCTYPE html>` declaration at the beginning of an HTML document?
