What's a Webpage? Books and Websites Analogy

  • A webpage is to a website what a page is to a book!
  • Webpage is coded in a special language format called HTML
educationWebsite

[earn] A webpage is a single document that you access through a web browser. It's like a digital page in a book, but instead of paper and ink, it's made up of code and multimedia elements. Webpages are the building blocks of websites, which are collections of related webpages linked together.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language):

A book page is written in English and other human languages, but a website is coded in HTML, a special language just meant for it.

CSS (Cascading Style Sheets):

[earn] if you want your book pages to be beautiful, you use graphic software to add designs and styles. For webpages, you use CSS, a special stylesheet meant for adding styles to webpages.

JavaScript:

Yes, one of the reasons we needed something more than bookpages was automation and customization. Normal book pages can't do that, so we invented webpages. JavaScript allowed webpages to look different for different people, does many automatic things like opening another page on its own, showing your picture and name, sending your information to another computer somewhere to register you for something important to you etc. [earn]

How to use a webpage?

You need a web browser like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Safari to and view webpages.

You enter the webpage's address or link, called a URL (Uniform Resource Locator), into the browser's address bar, and the browser fetches the page from a web server and displays it on your screen.

Common types of webpages:

[earn] Homepage: The main page of a website, often the first page you see when you visit a website.

Article page: A page containing written content, such as news articles, blog posts, or product descriptions.

Product page: A page showcasing a specific product, including its features, price, and images.

[earn] Contact page: A page providing information on how to contact a company or individual, often including a contact form.
