Beautify it with Hyperlinks and Images!


Now the time comes for the webpages to have few graphical content (images) and hyperlinks*. Yes, this is about images and hyperlinks. The images on a webpage produces a pleasing and attractive effect on the observer's side. And if a webpage has within itself the doors which open to new pages, it calls for a great interactive interface.

The images on a webpage are managed by the image element in html; <img> tag in specific. The images are specified in the tag with the help of the path address it is situated on your local directory or on your server. This path is incorporated in the "src" or the source attribute of the <img> tag.

You also have the "height" and "width" attributes in the <img> tag in order to have a fixed area covered by the exact image you want no matter if its smaller or bigger than your requirement, you can always work it down to your need.

Test code : ( Use this code to display images in your page )


<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>
My page still has a title within head tag
</title>
</head>
<body>
<img src="c:/images/image.jpg" width="104" height="142" />
</body>
<html>

 


 

Note: The address in your src attribute is subject to change with your image's location. Please give the location as per the format. And always remember to specify the correct extension for the image at the end eg: .jpg, .gif, .png etc.

 
Next is the hyperlinks to direct to a new page or address with a single click on the specified link. As we know the internet works on the interconnection of html documents across the websites. These links which provide a gateway to the other pages are the hyperlinks. We can create links easily with the <a> tag or Anchor tag and its attribute "href" which stores the reference address to which the page is to be directed and the text for link is displayed between the opening and closing tags. The anchor tag makes it a task of few character to divert to a new address from a link.

Test code : ( Use this code to direct to google.com by clicking the link )


<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>
My page still has a title within head tag
</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://www.google.com/">This is a link</a>
</body>
<html>


NOTE: The above link will redirect the page to "google.com" when you click the text "This is a link" in the browser. Make notice that nothing about the address google.com will be displayed in the browser only the text between the anchor tag "This is a link" will be displayed.
Do type the "http://" before the address google.com else it may not work.

How to program pyramids using loops - 2

In this video tutorial, two of the more patterns have been discussed that relates to the similar pattern problems. What's different about these are that they also include spaces before the stars as a part of the pattern to be printed. Having this extra sub pattern to track spaces  in the desired pattern requires an extra loop to track and control it . For a brief review, We discussed that these patterns if observed carefully are just representation of tables i.e. a combination of rows and columns . And few of the cells in that table are populated with some data according to a logically programmed algorithm with represents a pattern. In these cases, the red triangles shows us the spaces represented by "sp" and therefore unlike the previous pattern these need to be managed by the loop as they occur before the stars in the pattern. So, taking the same approach of rows and columns managing loops, we will have an outer loop that tracks the rows which will start at 0...

Hello World in PHP!

PHP is one of the most powerful languages of the web. PHP is an application server as well as a programming language that has the capability to do loads of stuff like generate dynamic HTML, connect to databases, apply programming logic to the website code, server side scripting, form handling etc. It is one of the most widely used scripting languages. In order to get it running, you will need to have a basic setup preconfigured which we'll cover later in the course. Just to give you all a head's up, we will start with the trivial "HELLO WORLD" program. Test Code : ( Use this code to display Hello World! in the console ) <?php echo "Hello, World!"; ?> NOTE:  Don't worry about anything else you see on the screen just focus on the code and rest will be discussed later in the tutorials. Save the file as " H ello.php " in the DOCUMENT ROOT of your web-server; for XAMPP users like me its the HTDOCS folder in the installat...

Hello world in Java!

Java is one of the most commonly used programming languages in the world today. Most of the work you can ever think in the world of programming can be done using Java Programming. Java is used to program everything from small devices to heavy machines. Everything from your Smartphone to your ATM card is somehow supported by Java behind the scenes. In order to learn Java which you might have also heard as of the most popular Object oriented Programming language of the modern times, we must start with the trivial "HELLO WORLD" program. Test Code : ( Use this code to display Hello World! in the console ) public class Hello {     public static void main ( String args[] ) {         System.out.println( "Hello, World!" );     } } NOTE:  Don't worry about anything else you see on the screen just focus on the code and rest will be discussed later in the tutorials. Save the file as " H ello.java " ,  the .java exte...
