    A Brief History of HTML

    1993 - Present

    The first version of HTML was written by Tim Berners-Lee in 1993. Since then, there have been
    many different versions of HTML. The most widely used version throughout the 2000's was
    HTML 4.01, which became an official standard in December 1999.

    Another version, XHTML, was a rewrite of HTML as an XML language. XML is a standard
    markup language that is used to create other markup languages. Hundreds of XML languages
    are in use today, including GML (Geography Markup Language), MathML, MusicML, and RSS
    (Really Simple Syndication). Since each of these languages was written in a common language
    (XML), their content can easily be shared across applications. This makes XML potentially very
    powerful, and it's no surprise that the W3C would create an XML version of HTML (again, called
    XHTML). XHTML became an official standard in 2000, and was updated in 2002. XHTML is very
    similar to HTML, but has stricter rules. Strict rules are necessary for all XML languages,
    because without it, interoperability between applications would be impossible. You'll learn more
    about the differences between HTML and XHTML in Unit 2.

    Most pages on the Web today were built using either HTML 4.01 or XHTML 1.0. However, in
    recent years, the W3C (in collaboration with another organization, the WHATWG), has been
    working on a brand new version of HTML, HTML5. Currently (2011), HTML5 is still a draft
    specification, and is not yet an official standard. However, it is already widely supported by
    browsers and other web-enabled devices, and is the way of the future. Therefore, HTML5 is the
    primary language taught in this course.

    Answer -2
    Features of HTML:
    1- It is easy to learn and easy to use.
    2- It is platform-independent.
    3- Images, videos, and audio can be added to a web page.
    4- Hypertext can be added to text.
    5- It is a markup language.

    Answer - 3
    1. HTML 1.0
    The basic version of HTML has support for basic elements like text controls and images. This
    was the very basic version of HTML with less support for a wide range of HTML elements. It
    does not have rich features like styling and other things that were related to how content will be
    rendered in a browser.

    2. HTML 2
    HTML version 2.0 was developed in 1995 with basic intention of improving HTML version 1.0
    Now a standard got started to develop so as to maintain common rules and regulations across
    different browsers. HTML 2.0 has improved a lot in terms of the markup tags. In HTML 2.0
    version concept of form came into force. Forms were developed, but still, they had basic tags
    like text boxes, buttons, etc.

    3. HTML 3.2
    It was developed in 1997. After HTML 2.0 was developed, the next version of HTML was 3.2
    With version 3.2 of HTML, HTML tags were further improved. It is worth noting that because of
    W3C standard maintenance, the newer version of HTML was 3.2 instead of 3.

    4. HTML 4.01
    It was developed in 1999. It extended the support of cascading styling sheets. In version 3.2,
    CSS were embedded in HTML page itself. Therefore, if the website has various web pages to
    apply to the style of each page, we must place CSS on each web page. Hence there was a
    repetition of the same block of CSS.

    5. HTML5
    This is the latest version of HTML. For a developer, it could be used in 2014. It came up with
    lots of HTML tags support. HTML5 provided support for new form elements like input element s
    of different types; geolocations support tags, etc.
    Let us look at a few of the tags which were added to HTML5

    6. W3C HTML Validator


    An HTML validator is a web-based tool that is used to maintain or check whether a piece of
    HTML tag or HTML is valid. An HTML validator follows the standard of W3C to validate an
    HTML page. It follows the W3C standard.
