## 2-html-page-structure-imp-of-head-info.html
* The <head> element is a container for metadata (data about data).
* HTML metadata is data about the HTML document.
* Placed between the <html> tag and the <body> tag.
* Metadata is not displayed.
* Metadata typically define the document title, character set,
  styles, links, scripts.
* <title> <style> <meta> <link> <script>.


* Define the character set used.
  <meta charset="UTF-8">

* To display an HTML page correctly, the browser must know what
  character-set (encoding) to use.

* The Unicode Consortium develops the Unicode Standard. Their goal is to
  replace the existing character sets with its standard Unicode Transformation Format (UTF).

* Unicode was developed as a way to encode all the characters
  for every language.

* The Unicode Standard has become a success and is implemented
  in HTML, XML, Java, JavaScript, E-mail, ASP, PHP, etc.
  The Unicode standard is also supported in many
  operating systems and all modern browsers.

* The Unicode Standard covers (almost) all the characters,
  punctuations, and symbols in the world.

* The Unicode Consortium cooperates with the leading standards development
  organizations, like ISO, W3C, and ECMA.


* HTML5 introduced a method to let web designers take control
  over the viewport, through the <meta> tag.
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

* The viewport is the user's visible area of a web page.

* A <meta> viewport element gives the browser instructions on how to
  control the page's dimensions and scaling.

* The width=device-width part sets the width of the page to follow the
  screen-width of the device (which will vary depending on the device).

* The initial-scale=1.0 part sets the initial zoom level when the
  page is first loaded by the browser.


* If you need to support IE 9 or IE 8, then I would recommend using the tag.
  <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge">

* The X-UA-Compatible meta tag allows web authors to choose what version
  of Internet Explorer the page should be rendered as.


* Define a description of your web page.
  <meta name="description" content="Web page description">

* Define keywords for search engines.
  <meta name="keywords" content="HTML, CSS, XML, JavaScript">

* Define the author of a page.
  <meta name="author" content="Dhananjay">

* The <title> element defines the title of the document, and is
  required in all HTML/XHTML documents.
  - defines a title in the browser tab
  - provides a title for the page when it is added to favorites
  - displays a title for the page in search engine results
