HTML Help - The Head Section
HTML The Head Section
All HTML documents start with <html> and end with </html> Creates an HTML document
The Head section is not visible to the viewer, however it does contain important information regarding the document, such as author details, META TAGS (more on METAS later):
The head section starts with <head> and is closed by </head>
<title></title> You place your page title between these - make your title describe your page content - cannot be longer than 64 characters.
META TAGS go next - I will mention these later as you will not need to know about them for T171 - their use is so that the search engine spiders can index your site, that way your site will be indexed on the search engines, then everybody who wishes to will be able to find your site.
If you've looked at my code for this page you will see several other items in the head section - don't worry you don't need to know these for T171. Other items you might find here are style sheets (you don't need to know this for T171), and Javascript(not needed for T171) which is between the <script></script>.
