Introduction

Hi Ninjas, in this blog, we will learn about creating browsers window using HTML and CSS. A browser window allows users to visit the websites on the internet. A browser window should work on all screens from mobile phones to big laptops. It is used to get the relevant information from the internet.

Creating Browsers Window using HTML and CSS

So in this blog, we will cover the topic of creating browsers window using HTML and CSS. We will discuss the basic structure of the website and the HTML elements that we have to use. Then after the HTML page is ready, we will start styling and designing the website using CSS.

Basic Structure and HTML Elements

Essential HTML structure for creating a browser window

To create a website, it is essential to have a basic understanding of the website's basic structure, which will be implemented using HTML. HTML, also known as HyperText Markup Language, helps structure the webpage. Any basic page of the website requires some HTML elements:

  1. <html>
  2. <head>
  3. <title>
  4. <body>

Role of <html>, <head>, <title>, and <body> tags

  • <html> element: is the very first element that needs to be used in the HTML file. It includes all other elements to be used to define the structure of the HTML file. Below we will see how to use the <html> element.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <!-- HTML content goes here -->
</html>

 

  • <head> element: contains the metadata and gives us important information about the HTML file.
     
  • <title> element: is contained inside of this, which tells the user about the webpage's title. The title appears on the browser’s title bar. Below we will see how to use the <head> and <title> elements.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Browser Window</title>
  </head>
  <!-- Body content goes here -->
</html>

 

  • <body> element: represents the main content of the webpage and includes all the visible elements that users see when they visit the webpage. You place your text, images, videos, links, and other HTML elements here. Here's an example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Web Broswer</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <!-- Content goes here -->
  </body>
</html>

Examples of creating the basic structure

Now that we have seen the entire structure of the blog, we will put it all together here to make the structure of the HTML file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Browser Window</title>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class="container">
      <div class="header">
        <i class="fa fa-globe" aria-hidden="true"></i>
        <input type="text" value="https://www.codingninjas.com">
        <i class="fa fa-search" aria-hidden="true"></i>
      </div>
      <div class="content">
        <h1>Welcome to the Browser Window</h1>
        <p>This is the content of the browser window.</p>
      </div>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

Browser Windows without styling

Styling and Designing the Browser Window

CSS - Cascading Style Sheet

CSS also known as Cascading Style Sheets is used to style any HTML document and make it look more attractive to the users who view them when they open a website or to read any blog post. It helps increase the presentation of the document written in HTML or even XML.

Algorithm

The algorithm that we will implement in creating browsers window using HTML and CSS is as follows:

  • Set up the HTML structure with the appropriate DOCTYPE declaration and opening/closing HTML tags.
     
  • Add the necessary meta tags for character encoding and viewport configuration.
     
  • Give a suitable title to the webpage within the head section.
     
  • Link the required external stylesheet from the Font Awesome CDN for icon styling.
     
  • Define the CSS styles for the different elements, including body background, headings, browser window, navigation bar, URL input field, page content, lines of text, logo block, and bottom frame.
     
  • Create the browser window structure using div elements and apply the corresponding CSS classes.
     
  • Add the necessary HTML content within the browser window, including the navigation bar with icons, URL input field, page content with headings and lines of text, logo block, and bottom frame.

Styling Web Browser using CSS

Styling the HTML content will require us to have good knowledge of CSS. Below we will see how to style the above HTML content.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
