HTML Codes

HTML Coding

I can confess that while sitting through the Writing in a Digital Age class and learning that we wil be focusing on doing HTML coding, I had a breif panic attack.

Tears began to roll down my face, embarrased I was still in class and someone might see, I decided to get it together and think positive.

I know nothing of HTML codes in fact, the first time I ever heard of this was in class.

I was afraid of this subject being to deep into technology and computer science that I would have no idea how to interpret what the textbook was trying to say.

 

After reading the textbook "HTML, CSS and JavaScript" by Julie C. Meloni I felt a little more confident that I might be able to learn how to do this, and do it right. I know I will need a lot of practice but I know I can do it! 

  

While reading the chapters, I learned that "hypertext originally meant text stored in electronic form with cross-reference links between pages." 

It was the term used to describe anything that could be linked to other objects online. 

"Hyper-text Markup Language is a language for describing how text, graphics, and files containing other information are organized and linked together."

   

Learning the coding behind the HTML will influence my blogs in a more creative way. Understanding more of these codes will help my blogs look better than they do right now. I researched how cool people can make their blogs look by simply knowing how to play with HTML codes. I learned in class today that many HTML codes have copyrights. I hope to learn how to do the HTML codes correctly so that i can avoid any trouble. 

HTML codes for me is a completely different language, I hope I can fully understand it by the end of this semester!
