the world will remember ... Tony Montana!!!

OK... to know web programming you need to understand HTML… of course. However, some programmers tend to think HTML is not a language. In my opinion, its a language alright... but a basic and simple one. HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language and it’s just a plain text file that contains tags. The tags then tell the web browser how to display the page. So that’s it… it’s a method or structure to display data, text, pics, forms on the web.

HTM or HTML Extension? Have you noticed there are some pages with either extensions. Pretty confusing huh… Actually when you save an HTML file, you can use either the .htm or the .html extension. Using “.htm” might be a bad habit inherited from the past when some of the commonly used software only allowed three letter extensions (i.e. exe, dll and so on). With newer software we think it will be perfectly safe to use .html.
