Okay, because this is a forum, I'll tell you a little bit of HTML briefly. The rest you can go to www.w3schools.com/html to learn yourself.
Look at this little example below.
-----------------------------------------
<html>
<title> Hello World </title>
<body> Hello world </body>
</html>
-----------------------------------------
Where it says <html> it is telling the browser to start viewing that part of the page. Where it says </html> it tells the browser that it is the end of the document. The </html> indicates the break.
It is the same with the title. Where it says <title> and the </title>. It tells the web title to start and stop.

I will not go into specifics, but you can visit www.w3schools.com/html to learn more, if you are interested.

The reason for the <title> tag being inside the <head> tag is because the things inside the <head> tag are downloaded first, or something like that.

Actually, the reason for the <title> element to be a child of the <head> element is because the page title is part of the page's metadata, not direct page data. In other words, it is information that the browser (or "user-agent") uses. Although we see <title> data as the title of the window bar, it is considered to be information for the browser only.

sorry, but i don't see the point of this topic.
There are enougth tutorials in the how to section imo and this one is not even a proper one.
You should use a doctype, those are better for SEO

I think today, this type of coding is a kind of given! everyone knows it and its old (in some respects tongue.gif) Today, I would be looking to learn some of the more 'recent' languages instead of html

Maybe you are right. How about ruby on rails. I did a search on this forum and can't find a full related tutorial to this topics Anyone found it somewhere in this forum or have other links? I will predict that this will be the next web base language in the web apart from php (correct my if i'm wrong). Just a thoughts. wink.gif

P.S. would be appreciated if someone enlighten me on this..

EDITED: Found Ruby misc tutorial. But not full

Nice ... not rolleyes.gif tongue.gif .
Honestly, it should have looked like this
CODE
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
   <title>Testpage</title>
</head>
<body>
   <p>Hello World!</p>
</body>
</html>


That's the minimum you should have for a webpage...
