Week 2

In the past week, you’ve been familiar with HTML, created a simple HTML file, and worked with some special commands to modify text. This week, you’ll be doing some more labs as you continue your familiarity with HTML.

Resizing Posts on a Web Page

There are two ways to control the size of text displayed by the browser:

  • using heading styles,
  • set the font size of the main document or the current font size.

Six heading tags are used: from <H1> to <H6> (double tag, i.e. requires closing). Each tag has a specific style defined by the browser settings.

Setting the current font size

The <FONT> font tag allows you to set the size of the current font in individual places of the text in the range from 1 to 7.

Setting the typeface and font color

The <FONT> tag provides control over the typeface, color, and size of the text.

Changing the typeface of the text is done by simply adding the FACE attribute to the <FONT> tag. For example, to display text in Arial font, you would write:

<FONT FACE=”ARIAL”>

To change the font color, you can use the COLOR=”X” attribute in the <FONT> tag. Instead of “X”, you need to substitute the English name of the color in quotation marks (“ ”), or its hexadecimal value. When specifying a color by a hexadecimal number, it is necessary to present this color decomposed into three components: red (R – Red), green (G – Green), blue (B – blue), each of which has a value from 00 to FF. In this case, we are dealing with the so-called RGB format.

Examples of writing text in RGB format are shown in the Table:
