And
behold! In Fig. 15, you can view your very first Web Page! (Well
actually, your first step towards an HTML formatted item
description)
|
|
Fig 15
|
Your item
description that you typed into Notepad is now displaying in
your Internet Explorer window! (fig. 15).
One problem though…
where are all those paragraph breaks that we put in the original Notepad
file by clicking the Enter key twice?
The
paragraphs disappeared because web browsers (like Internet Explorer),
cannot “see” the Enter keystrokes we used to create the
paragraphs in Notepad, thus the browser doesn't display any
paragraph breaks.
|
In
order to indicate where paragraphs should be, we have to “tell” the
browser, “hey, put a paragraph break here” by inserting an HTML tag
at each point in the Notepad file where we want a paragraph to be.
|
|
IMPORTANT!
Each time we make a change in the Notepad file by adding some
HTML tags, we will need to follow these three easy but very
important steps, Save The Changes!:
|
1.1.
Make a change in your test.html
Notepad file by adding some HTML tags.
2. Save
the changes by selecting File, Save on the Notepad menu
command bar.
3. Go
back to Internet Explorer and click the Refresh button to view
the changes.

|
|
OK, we have set up our two applications for
writing and viewing our HTML formatting. Let's get busy!
