Download HTML Sample Files
Here you’ll find a few sample HTML files to be downloaded, using which you can perform your tests as needed.
What is an HTML File?
A .HTML file contains plain text that defines the format and layout of a web page. The information inside includes tags, text, labels, images, and hyperlinks. HTML files are frequently created and edited by web developers, then uploaded to web servers where they are parsed by web browsers when users access the webpages.
That said, other web technologies have been developed throughout time to improve websites, such as JavaScript and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), which you might find references to in modern HTML webpages.
HTML files use tags to structure content. Basic HTML structure:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Sample HTML</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello, World!</h1>
<p>This is a sample HTML file.</p>
</body>
</html>
Important tags of HTML include the following:
Tag | Description |
---|---|
<html> | Root element |
<head> | Metadata container |
<title> | Document title |
<body> | Document body |
<h1> | Heading level 1 |
<p> | Paragraph |
