Defining the HTML Body
HTML body holds visible content like text and images, rendered by browsers.
Understanding the <body> Tag
The <body> tag is an essential part of an HTML document, containing all the content that is displayed in a browser. This includes text, images, tables, links, forms, and more. The <body> element comes after the <head> element and is a direct child of the <html> tag.
Elements Inside the <body>
The <body> tag can include various types of elements to enhance webpage content:
- Text elements: Use <p>, <h1>-<h6>, <span>, <strong>, etc., to format text.
- Media elements: Embed images using <img>, videos using <video>, and audio with <audio>.
- Interactive elements: Add forms (<form>, <input>, <button>, etc.) and links (<a>).
- Structural elements: Organize content with <div>, <section>, <article>, and <nav>.
Styling the <body>
The <body> tag can be styled using CSS to improve the aesthetic of a webpage. You can apply styles directly to the <body> tag or use classes and IDs for more specificity.
JavaScript Interaction with the <body>
JavaScript can be used to manipulate the elements within the <body>, allowing for dynamic content updates and interaction. You can select the <body> tag or any of its child elements to apply changes.
