HTML

Page Layout, Margins, Indenting, and Columns

HTML was originally designed as a 'markup' language to represent the logical structure of documents in terms of headings, lists, etc. Since some elements of HTML were commonly rendered with similar layouts, e.g. indenting of BLOCKQUOTE, these were pressed into use for layout solutions by web page designers. However the official HTML specifications do not demand these specific renderings, and although the most popular browsers might indeed implement the layout with indenting, this is not guaranteed to be true of all browsers.

HTML 4.0 Tags

This article lists all the tags, their possible attributes (and which are required), and which recommendation they are part of, in a single, printable page. A handy resource to bookmark for quick information!

Tables

Tables arrange data -- text, preformatted text, images, links, forms, form fields, other tables, etc. -- into rows and columns of cells. They're often used for page layout, but the trend now should be towards using style sheets for that.

HTML Forms for Web Site Interaction

A form is a graphical user interface with text entry fields and areas, buttons, checkboxes, pull-down menus, scrolling lists, etc.

Frames - Multi-view presentation of documents

Frames enable the display of multiple independently scrollable views on a single screen, each with its own distinct URL. Frames can point to different URLs as well as be targeted by other URLs - all within the same screen. Views may be independent windows or subwindows. Multiple views allow designers to keep certain information visible, while other views are scrolled or replaced.

Objects

HTML 4.0 introduces the OBJECT element, which offers an all-purpose solution for dealing with new media, while providing for effective backwards compatibility with existing browsers. OBJECT allows the HTML author to specify the data, and/or properties/parameters for initializing objects to be inserted into HTML documents, as well as the code that can be used to display/manipulate that data. The term "object" is used to describe the things that people want to place in HTML documents: images, applets, plug-ins, media handlers, etc.

A look at the various font-properties and the proper use of those properties.

Marginally Speaking

Through the use of the CSS2 margin, border and padding properties we can at last have some control of page layout without resorting to transparent gifs and tables. This method will not be for everyone. If you require your pages to look exactly the same in older browsers as they do in the 4.0 versions you will need to continue using the tried and true methods.
