<html>
<body>

<p>My first paragraph.</p>
</body>
</html>
HTML Headings
HTML headings are defined with the <h1> to <h6> tags.
<h1> defines the most important heading. <h6> defines the least important heading:
Example
<h1>This is heading 1</h1>
<h2>This is heading 2</h2>
<h3>This is heading 3</h3>
HTML Paragraphs
HTML paragraphs are defined with the <p> tag:
Example
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
<p>This is another paragraph.</p>
HTML Links
HTML links are defined with the <a> tag:
Example
<a href="[Link] is a link</a>
HTML Images
HTML images are defined with the <img> tag.
The source file (src), alternative text (alt), width, and height are provided as attributes:
Example

Define an HTML Table
A table in HTML consists of table cells inside rows and columns

Table Cells
Each table cell is defined by a <td> and a </td> tag.

Everything between <td> and </td> are the content of the table cell.
Example
<table>
<tr>
<td>Emil</td>

<td>Linus</td>
</tr>
</table>
