All language subtitles for 4. HTML Tags 3

Hello and welcome back.

I'm excited to show you a few more tags, before we get into some fun things, that we can do with HTML

now and we can finish up the course.

You may be wondering, hey! what if maybe, I'm working with a team and we're all working on the same HTML

file and I want to, maybe, have a comment in there, to let them know that maybe, here "Use GET, not POST"

Let's, capitalize it, if we just do this the way it is.

It's kind of, show up on the Web site, we just want it as a comment, so that people who look at the code

can see it without affecting the website.

Well, HTML has a way to comment and the way you do that, is like this

"Use GET, not POST"

Now, that's kind of tedious to write. In sublime text, you can do that by holding 'COMMAND + /'

and you can do it that way. If you have a Windows based laptop or computer, that is the 'CTRL + /'

*/ Not 'windows + /' /*

So that's how, we write comments.

And if I save this. Oops that's not what I wanted to do.

If I save this and refresh, nothing shows up.

Perfect.

And then, the last two tags that I'm going to show you, are the ‘div’ tags for division and the ‘span’ tags

these tags are,

how can I say this, useless right now.

And it's because they're used to divide content.

So ‘div’ tag, you're going to see in a lot of web pages, are used like this, to let's say, wrap the form.

So by doing this, let's see if it does anything.

Nope!, everything looks exact same, but this is very powerful when we get into CSS.

Because what this allows us to do, is to divide up our content.

Imagine if we had a registration form here, maybe another piece of content, maybe an image up here.

‘div’ tag allows us to add styles and divide up the content into each different section, so that, each section

of our Web site, can have its own little box.

So you're going to see this a lot, in the CSS section.

But for now just keep that in mind, so there's no surprises.

‘span’ tag is the same thing except, ‘span’ tag is a inline element, so an inline element is different from a block

element because with ,’span’ tag we can just add it to a specific line, so we can do ‘span’ and ‘/span’.

And again, this won't do anything, if I refresh.

Nothing happens.

But now inline, we can add some styles only to the "First Name:" and we can emphasize it, so these are

just tags that we can use as tools, when we want to have a container, an invisible container, around a

piece of element and are HTML.

that perhaps you want to add some style to or have some specific functionality to.

So again, we're not going to worry about adding these, to our current web site, but I wanted to show you

that those do exist and we're going to encounter those

in the CSS chapter.

That's it for now.

Talk to you soon.
