Webpage
A webpage is a document on the World Wide Web, written in languages like HTML, that is displayed in a browser. It is part of a larger website, and can be static (unchanging) or dynamic (changing based on user interaction or data). Key terms include URL (address), hyperlink (link), and web browser (software to view webpages).
Core components and technologies
HTML (HyperText Markup Language): The foundational code that provides the structure and content of a webpage.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets): Controls the presentation, formatting, and layout of the page.
JavaScript: A scripting language that adds interactivity, such as animations, form validation, and dynamic content updates.
Hyperlink: A clickable link that connects one document to another, forming the "web" of interconnected pages.
Types of webpages
Static webpage: Displays the same information to every user and is updated manually.
Dynamic webpage: Content is generated or changed on the fly, often using server-side scripts (like PHP) to pull information from a database.
