Summary
This hour introduced the basics of what Web pages are and how they work. You learned that coded HTML commands are included in the text of a Web page, but images and other media are stored in separate files. You also learned why typing HTML text yourself is often better than using a graphical editor to create HTML commands for you. Finally, you saw that a single Web page can look very different, depending on what software and hardware are used to display it.
