Get started with the building blocks of HTML, the markup language at the core of the internet.

Web Essentials

HTML is used to design standard web pages by using multiple tags and it can be used with multiple assistive languages like CSS and Javascript. In this module, you will learn about HTML tags from scratch. This module will also teach you how to code and create your own web pages using HTML in this interactive web development module for beginners.

Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML)

## The `<audio>` tag in HTML
The **`<audio>`** tag is used to embed audio files in an HTML page. The structure of the `<audio>` tag is as follows:
```html
<audio>
<source src="music.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
<source src="music.ogg" type="audio/ogg">
Audio tag is not supported in the browser
</audio>
```
The `<audio>` tag itself can reference audio files. 
 However, the `<source>` tag(s) inside the `<audio>` tag can also provide the audio files that must be embedded in the HTML page. The `<source>` tag requires `src` and `type` attributes. The `src` attribute must provide the URL to the audio file, and the `type` attribute must provide the type of audio file. The text enclosed between `<audio>` and `</audio>` is only displayed if the browser does not support the `<audio>` tag.

## Example usage of the `<audio>` tag
The following code provides an example:
