Lecture 17:- HTML Basics - III

Let's continue with HTML Basics - Part III. In this session, we'll explore some advanced HTML elements and concepts to further enhance your web pages.

Lists (Continued): HTML provides additional list types, such as definition lists (<dl>) with <dt> (term) and <dd> (description) elements.

Semantic Tags (Continued): Further explore semantic elements to improve the structure of your web page. Use <header> for page headers, <nav> for navigation menus, <main> for the main content, <section> for sections within the page, <article> for standalone content, <footer> for the footer section, and <aside> for side content.

Inline Elements vs. Block Elements: Understand the difference between inline elements (e.g., <span>, <a>) and block elements (e.g., <div>, <p>). Block elements start on a new line and take up the full available width, while inline elements only take up as much width as necessary and do not start on a new line.

Images (Continued): Add alternative text to images using the alt attribute. The alt attribute provides a description of the image for accessibility and search engine optimization.

Video and Audio: You can embed video and audio content using the <video> and <audio> elements.

Tables (Continued): Enhance tables with header cells (<th>) and table captions (<caption>).

IFrames: Use the <iframe> element to embed external content, such as maps or videos, from other websites.

Meta Tags: Besides specifying character encoding and viewport settings, you can use meta tags to provide additional information about your web page, such as author, description, and keywords.

Validation and Accessibility: Ensure your HTML code is valid by using online validators. Additionally, aim to create accessible web pages that can be used by people with disabilities. Use proper headings, alternative text for images, and semantic elements for better accessibility.

Responsive Images: Use the <picture> element and the srcset attribute to provide different image sources for different screen sizes, improving the responsiveness of your images.

That wraps up our HTML Basics - Part III. By now, you have a solid understanding of HTML fundamentals and have learned how to create structured and accessible web pages. Continue practicing, exploring advanced HTML elements, and combining HTML with CSS and JavaScript to create impressive web applications!
