A website is a collection of related webpages stored on a web server and accessible via the internet. Each webpage can include text, images, videos, and sounds. Websites are viewed using web browsers, which interpret the HTML code that defines the website's structure and content. HTML is the markup language used to create websites - it uses tags to describe webpage elements. A basic website has an HTML structure with head and body sections.

WEBSITE
GRADE 11 SPECIFIC OUTCOMES At the end of the lesson, PS; • Define website • Design a simples webpage What is a Website?
• A website is a collection of individual but related
webpages that are usually stored together and hosted by a web server. These can be programmed or created using different languages including HTML. Each webpage can include a variety of different objects such as text, images (including moving images) and sound. What is a web brower? • A website can be viewed using a web browser. A web browser is a software that reads the HTML code that forms a website. Examples of a web browsers • Wiindows Internet explorer • Mozila Firefox • Google Chrome • Safari • Opera Mini What is HTML? • HTML is an abbreviation for Hypertext Markup Language. It is a text- based language used to develop websites, and is often used within an intranet or on the Internet. Files are written in HTML using a simple text editor (or web-authoring package like Macromedia Dreamweaver or Microsoft FrontPage). Files are written in text format and are usually saved with an .html file extension. These are file formats that are recognized as webpages by web browsers like Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. What is HTML?
• Although many people refer to HTML as a
programming language, that is not strictly true. It is a markup language that uses a set of markup tags to describe a webpage to the browser. HTML tags are shown using angle brackets around. <HTML> • The angle brackets tell the browser that this is a markup tag and not text to be placed on the webpage. The browser does not display the HTML tags, but uses the tags to display the content of the page. Most HTML commands have pairs of tags, one to open the command and one to close the command. Each tag has a pair of angle brackets around it. • The first tag that will usually appear in any webpage will be <html>. This tag tells the browser that everything following this tag will be written in hypertext markup language. The tag </html> tells the browser that this is the end of the markup language. The forward slash shows that it is a closing tag. All other HTML tags will appear between these tags. <head>
• Each webpage will have two clearly defined sections, the
head and the body. The head section starts with <head> and closes with </head> and objects between these tags are not usually displayed by the web browser. Only a few tags are universally accepted within the head section of a webpage, these are: <base>, <link>, <meta>, <title>, <style> and <script>. <body> • The body section starts with <body> and closes with </body> and objects between these tags should be displayed by the browser. The body section should always contain a title. This is the name displayed in the browser toolbar. It is the page title if a page is added to Favorites and is the title displayed in search engine results. The basic structure of any webpage should therefore include these tags. STRUCTURE • <html> • <head> • <tittle> webpage name </title> • </head> • <body> • <body> • </html> EXAMPLE
