Web Design Basics
What is a good Web site from a design standpoint?
How We Read Text
Following normal reading habits, the users eye moves from left to right
How We View Screens
Looking at a screen, the users eye scans in a more clockwise pattern
How Will Your Users Read/View?
If a page uses a lot of text, the user will read in a more traditional, left to right manner.
If a page has more graphical elements, the user is more likely to take in the whole page.

HTML FundamentalsWhat is HTML?
Telling the browser what to do, and what purpose to use. A series of tags that are integrated into a text document.
Tags are ; surrounded with angle brackets like this
<B> or <I>.
Most tags come in pairs exceptions: <P>, <br>, <li> tags …
The first tag turns the action on, and the second turns it off.
Clear text Ignores white space Comprised of tags <tag /> Open tags and closed tags
HTML FundamentalsOpen tags
<name attributes/><hr/>, <br/><img src=“url” width=‘100px’ height=’60px’/>
Closed tags<name attributes> stuff </name><b>text to be bolded</b><h1>level 1 heading text</h1>
Comments < ! - - comment text -- >
The second tag(off switch) starts with a forward slash. For example ,<B> text </B> can embedded, for instance, to do this: <HEAD><TITLE> Your text </HEAD></TITLE> it won't work. The correct order is <HEAD><TITLE> Your text
</TITLE></HEAD> not case sensitivity. Many tags have attributes. For example, <P ALIGN=CENTER> centers the paragraph
following it. Some browsers don't support the some tags and some
attributes.
Tags in head <TITLE>...</TITLE>-- puts text on the browser's title bar. <META>…</META>-- data (information) about data.<HEAD>...</HEAD>-- contains information about the
document
Tags in BodyLet's talk Text Heading: <H1> </H1>Center:<Center> </Center>Line Break <P> ,<Br>Phrase Markups: <I></I> ,<B></B>Create a List
