Hi all........

Can anyone tell me, What is Semantic HTML.

Thanks in advance.....

Hi...

Semantic HTML means using HTML tags for their implied meaning, rather than just using (meaningless) div and span tags for absolutely everything. Why would you want to do this? Depending on the tag, the content in the tag can be interpreted in a certain way. Here are some examples.


Header tags

If you use <h1> instead of <div class="header">, and <h2> instead of <div class="subheader">, et cetera, Google and other search engines will interpret your headers as being important titles in your page. This way, when people search on the words in your headers and sub-headers, your page will be considered more relevant (and rank higher). Plus, it's much shorter and cleaner.

This works both ways: don't use header tags for anything except headers, especially not increasing your font size or outlining your search engine keywords. This way, your page can be parsed for structure (you can do this with the W3C HTML Validator). This structure can then be used by screen readers or other tools to build a table of contents for your page.

Form labels

The <label> tag is so sadly forgotten. It's not immediately clear what the point of using it is, so very few web pages take advantage of it. The label tag is used to identify a label for an input field, for example "E-mail Address". It can either be used be wrapping it around the text and input field like: <label>First Name: <input name="fname"/></label>, or it can be used with the for attribute like so: <label for="fname">First Name:</label> <input id="fname" name="fname"/>.

Why use the label tag instead of <div class="label">? Well, it's shorter and cleaner. But it also let's screen readers and other tools identify the text associated with an input field. Without using the label tag, it can be very difficult for some people to know what is supposed to go into your form fields.




thnx...

Hi....

That's something you may have asked yourself already. It is something that you may have heard other people talk and write about.

But most people don't really know what it is. It seems to be this mysterious technology that only the Web development gurus actually know anything about.

Semantic HTML is actually simpler than you think. And if you've written HTML youself, then you've probably created Semantic HTML without even know it. (Although you may have not used it to its full potential.)

This article explains what Semantic HTML is so that a beginner, with minimal HTML experience, can understand it.

Thanks & Regards

nice discussion.

.shtml Definition

.shtml is a web file suffix - for example, index.shtml. .shtml files are files which can include server generated content on the page. For example, a .shtml file could contain a counter or other server generated content.

.shtml files are setup on a web server as server side include files. Other files can be setup as server side include, but .shtml files are common on linux hosts.

thanks

Semantics is the study of meaning in communication. The word derives from Greek σημαντικός (semantikos), "significant", from σημαίνω (semaino), "to signify, to indicate" and that from σήμα (sema), "sign, mark, token". In linguistics it is the study of interpretation of signs as used by agents or communities within particular circumstances and contexts. It has related meanings in several other fields.

Given a worldwide semantic web of assertions, the search engine technology currently (1998) applied to HTML pages will presumably translate directly.
