This is third part of my blog on learning HTML. In this blog you will learn how to HTML Attributes, in the end of post you will see some practice sample questions.
What are HTML Attributes?
Attributes provide additional information about HTML elements
•HTML elements can have attributes
•Attributes provide additional information about an element
•Attributes are always specified in the start tag
•Attributes come in name/value pairs like: name="value"
Example
HTML links are defined with the <a> tag. The link address is specified in the href attribute:
<a href="http://www. allabout2011.blogspot.ca">This is a link</a>
Always Quote Attribute Values
Attribute values should always be enclosed in quotes.
Double style quotes are the most common, but single style quotes are also allowed.
Tip: In some rare situations, when the attribute value itself contains quotes, it is necessary to use single quotes: name='John "ShotGun" Nelson'
HTML Tip: Use Lowercase Attributes
Attribute names and attribute values are case-insensitive.
Newer versions of (X)HTML will demand lowercase attributes.
