explain html as cross-platform language?
88788
HTML is cross-platform because there are web browsers on every type of operating system which allow you to view websites written in HTML the same way, no matter which OS you are using. Firefox, the most popular cross-platform browser available, displays pages exactly the same when you are using Windows as when you are using Mac OS X.

HTML is probably the easiest computer "language" I've ever learnt. I actually taught myself from a book. It's remarkably easy.

That's HTML (hyper text markup language). It is the coding language used to create web pages viewed on the world wide web.

If you  mean on a web page, you would include a meta like this:\n<meta \nhttp-equiv="Content-Type" \ncontent="text/html;  \ncharset=UTF-8">

It is, but its not easy to explain. You need to learn the proper codding and your website host needs to support the proper script language.\n\nDo an internet search on the subject and you will get alot of info.

No! No! No!\nNo matter what language U use for programming, the result is in HTML. So search engine gets HTML from your site. Even if it's index.php....

Well, you going to have to use some HTML...there is no way to get around it.  HTML is essentially the foundation and the structure of the site that you are trying to build, the other languages allow you to manipulate data and provide functionality.  \n\nThat being said, there are a ton of other web scripting languages that you can use that will allow you to upload files and edit information.  My preference is asp.  I have just now started working in ASP.NET and it appears that it is fully capable as well, but unless you have a pretty good understanding of vbscripting and XML, it can be a bit of a pain to work through.\n\nFor free help with most available languages out there, check out http://www.w3cschools.com   They cover almost all of the currently used languages available for web development.

A large majority of the Web designers, including corporate ones, never heard of the W3Consortium. They will generally write web pages that will work with their own browser, which, more often than not, is very forgiving when it comes to unorthodox HTML. Many authors are self-taught, and I bet that some of them reading this question are intrigued by it, and would like to know more. This answer may help them to get started.\nTo validate an HTML Doc, go to:\nhttp://validator.w3.org/

Well javascript doesn't really have specific formats. However what you might be talking about is the language types that you can specify. If that is the case you are looking for javascript and vbscript. Both can be specified on the client side in the language tag.\n\n<script language = "javascript">\n<script language = "vbscript">\n\nThen the syntax will be a bit different for each. Both are client side and everything, so I am guessing this is what you mean.\n\nHope this is what you are asking for.

Hi, the link below may help. I sent an email to my actual programmer who can help for sure. I have not personally made the leap to how we actually serve our websites but its xhtml 1.1 and css served as an xml file. It may not require visual basic to do it but please don't quote me on that.

IE does not interpret Javascript, it only understands Jscript. Firefox, as a product of Moziila/Netscape, only understands Javascript. While both languages share similar functions, as they are both implementations of ECMAscript, and they share objects by adhering to various levels of the W3C DOM specifications, they also have completely exclusive functions and objects (It is only recently that the Gecko DOM supported the innerHTML object; it was first created as part of IE's DOM).\nTry to code to W3 specifications and you will seldom have any problems, or the need to fork code.

If you know what HTML is, PHP is like the same thing, but it can communicate with other files and its dynamic and server-side (so it's like JavaScript, but you can see any ugly code by viewing the source of a website and it isn't browser-selective).\nIf you don't know what HTML is, don't go there!!\nIt isn't "aka" Perl of CGI. Same idea, different language. (Calling PHP Perl is like calling a cow a cat just because they both have four legs.)

All operating systems that I can think of support HTML.  HTML is simply a mark up langage and exists as plain text.  However, it is the job of a web browser to translate the HTML text into the *pretty* web page for us. \n\nSo your real question might have been, "For which operating systems are web browsers available?"

you don't need to convert anything. just put the html code outside the <?php ... and ?> tags and they will show up as normal html.

In computing, HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is a markup language designed for the creation of web pages with hypertext and other information to be displayed in a web browser. HTML is used to structure information — denoting certain text as headings, paragraphs, lists and so on — and can be used to describe, to some degree, the appearance and semantics of a document. HTML's grammar structure is the HTML DTD that was created using SGML syntax.

Be more specific.\n\nBasic explanation: View it's HTML source.
