Welcome back!
Are you feeling a little more comfortable with HTML tags
now that you've typed some yourself?
We have a bunch more tags to cover
so you'll be tagging all over the place soon.
Now, do you remember this paragraph about rabbits?
I'm a bit worried that the aliens might read it in a monotone voice.
And they won't pay attention
to the really important words and phrases in it.
So I want to markup the parts that they should emphasize.
We can start by using the `` tag, which stands for emphasis.
We use it whenever we want to to indicate
where we would emphasize a word while speaking.
Like, if I want the aliens to say,
"The most orange vegetables in OUR world."
Then I can wrap the "our" in an `` tag.
The browser will see the ``,
and then italicize the text inside of it to show the emphasis.
Now the aliens will really realize that I'm
talking about OUR world not theirs,
because I don't know anything about their world
and what their vegetables look like.
What if the aliens are just skimming the text?
What if they don't even read the entire amazing paragraph that I wrote?
In that case, I want to make sure a few key phrases stand out.
And I can use a `` tag for that.
Probably the most important fact, is how much rabbits reproduce.
Because I wouldn't want aliens taking rabbits home with them
and then being mad at us when the rabbits eventually overpopulate them
and take over their government.
So, I will wrap this fact in a `` tag.
Alright, the browser will see the ``,
and then bold the text inside of it, to make sure that it stands out.
We can even combine `` and``,
and put them inside of each other.
Like if I want the aliens to say,
"More than any human ever has."
Then I can wrap the "ever" in an `` .
Okay, now I'm happy, I think they'll really pay attention.
And now you've got two more tags in your HTML toolbox.
Use them, but don't abuse them.
