William Wood 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2007 Okay, because this is a forum, I'll tell you a little bit of HTML briefly. The rest you can go to http://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 http://www.w3schools.com/html/ to learn more, if you are interested.

lonelym 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2007 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FirefoxRocks 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2007 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.

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.
