HTML: Paragraphs
The HTML <p> element defines a paragraph.
The paragraph tag places a blank line above and below the text.Html Comments
Comments are parts of the code that are ignored by a browser. To explain and define section parts of a document to others who see the code, it's a good practice to add comments to your HTML code. Especially in complex documents. To increase the readability of the code and help others understand the code, then comments are very useful.
Texts and content placed between these <! - ... -> tags are handled as a comment and will be completely ignored by the browser.
Single Comments in HTML
When the comment span over one line the comment should be placed in between the start tag <!-- and the end tag -->. All content that is placed between these tags will be treated as comments and will therefor be ignored by the browser.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Comment over one line</title> </head> <body> <!--Comments that span over no more than one line are called a single line comment.--> <p>Some even better story goes here.</p> </body> </html>
Multiline Comments in HTML
It's possible to comment on several rows with the special start tag <!-- - and the end tag -->. The first tag is placed before the first line and the end tag is placed in the end of the last line. The following example illustrates it.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Comment over more than one line</title> </head> <body> <!-- Comments that span over more than one line is called a multiline comment. --> <p>Some nice story goes here</p> </body> </html>
Debugging - Comment out Code
It can be very useful to be able to comment out you code during testing. It helps you when you try to find error in the code.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <!-- Hide this during debugging <p>Why comments can be good to use during debugging the code.</p> --> </body> </html>
Comment out Script Code
If you use Java Script and VBScript in the HTML code, you can place the script code in correct HTML comments to make sure that also old browsers work properly.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Commenting Script Code</title> <script> <!-- document.write("My nice friend Johnny is swimming") --> </script> </head> <body> <p>Hello , Johnny!</p> </body> </html>
Comment out Style Sheets
When using Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) in the HTML code, it is recommended that you type that code in real HTML comments to ensure that old browsers work properly.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Commenting Style Sheets in HTML</title> <style> <!-- .example { border: 3px solid; } --> </style> </head> <body> <div class = "example">Hello , Johnny! Dinner is served.</div> </body> </html>

HTML is a markup language used to make web pages. HTML5 is the latest version of Hypertext Markup Language. The cornerstone technologies for a webpage are HTML, which provides the structure. Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), which take care of presentation. And JavaScript, which makes things happen.
Thanks to HTML5, web pages can now store data locally on the users browser, then you dont need to use HTTP cookies. Now content can be delivered faster and more securely. HTML5 has also made it easier to ensure consistency across all browsers. Since browsers have traditionally relied upon different plugins to play multimedia files, native support of video and audio allows developers to avoid compatibility issues. New attributes also allow for video controls including play, pause, and volume options.
HTML4 was the standard for about 15 years and many still use it, all browsers will continue to support it for a very long time. Likewise, older browsers can 'overlook' new HTML5 code while rendering content. Virtually all modern browsers support HTML5 specifications fairly well.
You can use HTML5test to run a test with your current browser to see what it scores in terms of HTML5 support.

Learn JavaScript Debugging
Searching for bugs and fixing them is called code debugging. The bugs might be difficult to diagnose and therefore it is important to have a good approach to find and fix the bugs effectively. Bugs in the code might be syntax errors or logical errors. Sometimes nothing happens when the code contains bugs and there is few indications where to search. Modern web browser includes a powerful suite of developer tools. The tools do a range of things...
