Attributes in HTML

What are attributes?

  1. Every HTML tag has some attribute associated with it, attributes define the specification of that tag.
    1. For example: If you are a human being, then your attributes/specifications are height, weight, age, color etc.
  2. An attribute is always written in the opening tag.
  3. An attribute is always written in name="value" pair.
  4. Attribute value always enclosed in double quotes or single quotes.

Body tag Attributes?

  2. A basic HTML page contains at least head and body tags.
  3. Body tag has various attributes associated with it, we have discussed some of them here in this article.
    1. text: This attributes used to define the text color in the body means your HTML content written in the body tag.
    2. bgcolor: This attribute is used to define the background color of the body (Web page).
    3. background: This attribute is used to add any background images of your web page.

  1. The most popular are Hex color codes.
  2. It consists of six digits.
  3. It always starts with the #(hash)  symbol.
  4. Each pair of characters in the Hex code, representing the intensity of red, green and blue in the color respectively.
    1. Example: #XXXXXX
  5. Hex code pair values range from 00, which is the lowest intensity of a color, to FF which represents the highest intensity.
