More about HTML
HTML files save the data in a standard text format and hold tags to indicate the structure of a webpage. By using a text editor,users can access and edit an HTML file. However,HTML files are usually accessed by source code editors that make coding easy.
HTML source codes are not visible by a web browser. If you want to view the source code,select 'view source' from the 'view' menu of a browser. Don't interfere with the coding if you don't have the knowledge of source code editing.
The common HTML file name is index.html which is uploaded when a request is made by a client web browser to a Web Server directory. For instance,while you request to open a web browser like http://www.........com/,the server loads http://www.........com/index.html also.
The file name default.html is often used by Windows Web servers.
