Top  Previous  Next

The HTML editor allows creation of nice looking messages with images, tables, and color/size formatted text.

Hint: It is easy and very productive to cut and paste or drag-and-drop information from web pages, Microsoft Word, Outlook and other programs into the text editor.  

HTML – Hyper Text Markup Language.


HTML is authoring language of the World Wide Web. HTML defines the structure and layout of a Web document by using a variety of markup tags and attributes These tags and attributes instruct programs like web browsers, such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla, how to layout and display a document retrieved from a World Wide Web Server.

The correct structure for an HTML document starts with <HTML><HEAD></HEAD> and then <BODY> and ends with </BODY></HTML>. All the information you'd like to display in a Web page fits in between the <BODY> and </BODY> tags. For example:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
   (what the document is about)
</HEAD>
<BODY>
   (what is displayed in the web browser)
</BODY>
</HTML>


There are hundreds of other tags used to format and layout the information in a Web page. Tags are also used to specify images to display in web pages and hypertext links. These allow Web developers to direct users to other Web pages with only a click of the mouse on either an image or word(s).

What does the HTML Editor do?

The editor is WYSIWYG ( What You See Is What You Get ) HTML Editor. Its function is to allow the user of a windows application to edit and create HTML Markup in a visual design mode, similar to a word processor, minimizing the necessity for the user to have any HTML coding knowledge and, to provide an editable visual preview of the web-site content before publishing it to the web.

The editors databound property, documentHTML, outputs the contents of the edited document between and excluding the <BODY> and </BODY> tags. This makes it possible for the editor to modify the contents of an entire web page or just sections of a page. In terms of Website Content Management Systems the resulting HTML code outputted from the editor could be stored in a database for retrieval later by a server-side scripting language such as ASP, PHP, .NET, Cold Fusion etc and sent to the web browser that requested the document.
