4 Provide an overview of website publishing and markup languages

A markup language is a computer language that uses tags to define elements within a document. It is human-
readable, meaning markup files contain standard words, rather than typical programming syntax. The two most
popular are HTML and XML.

HTML is a markup language used for creating webpages. The contents of each webpage are defined by HTML
tags. Basic page tags, such as <head>, <body>, and <div> define sections of the page, while tags such as <table>,
<form>, <image>, and <a> define elements within the page. Most elements require a beginning and end tag, with
the content placed between the tags.

XML is used for storing structured data, rather than formatting information on a page. While HTML documents use
predefined tags (like the examples above), XML files use custom tags to define elements.

XML is called the "Extensible Markup Language" since custom tags can be used to support a wide range of
elements. Each XML file is saved in a standard text format, which makes it easy for software programs to parse or
read the data. Therefore, XML is a common choice for exporting structured data and for sharing data between
multiple programs.
