'''HTML''' or '''Hypertext Markup Language''' is a system of tags mostly used to create, design and format webpages. A Internet Browser will take the HTML and other scripting language, and create a graphical page. Unlike some programming languages, HTML is viewable by the user. HTML is a base language, accompanied or created dynamically by numerous other scripting languages such as [[CSS]], [[JavaScript]], VBScript, [[PHP]], [[Perl]], and many more.
