The HTML Document Type

All HTML documents must start with a <!DOCTYPE> declaration.

The declaration is not an HTML tag. It is an “information” to the browser about what document type to expect.

In HTML5, the <!DOCTYPE> declaration is simple:<!DOCTYPE html>

In older documents (HTML 4 or XHTML), the declaration is more complicated because the declaration must refer to a DTD (Document Type Definition).<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd”><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd”>

You can read more about document types in the <!DOCTYPE> reference.

URL – Uniform Resource Locator

Web browsers request pages from web servers by using a URL.

The URL is the address of a web page, like: https://www.w3schools.com.


URL Encoding (Percent Encoding)

URL encoding converts characters into a format that can be transmitted over the Internet.

URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character-set.

Since URLs often contain characters outside the ASCII set, the URL has to be converted into a valid ASCII format.

URL encoding replaces unsafe ASCII characters with a “%” followed by two hexadecimal digits.

URLs cannot contain spaces. URL encoding normally replaces a space with a plus (+) sign or with %20.


Try It Yourself

If you click the “Submit” button below, the browser will URL encode the input before it is sent to the server. A page at the server will display the received input.

Try some other input and click Submit again.


URL Encoding Functions

In JavaScript, PHP, and ASP there are functions that can be used to URL encode a string.

PHP has the rawurlencode() function, and ASP has the Server.URLEncode() function.

In JavaScript you can use the encodeURIComponent() function.

Click the “URL Encode” button to see how the JavaScript function encodes the text.

Note: The JavaScript function encodes space as %20.



ASCII Encoding Reference

Your browser will encode input, according to the character-set used in your page.

The default character-set in HTML5 is UTF-8.

Pixel to Em Converter

The tool below allows you to work out the em sizes from pixels (or vice versa).

  • Set a default pixel size for body (usually 16px)
  • Then, convert a pixel value to em, based on the default pixel size
  • Or, convert an em value to pixels, based on the default pixel size

Set a default pixel size: px

Convert PX to EM:
 px

Convert EM to PX:
ย em

Body Font Size

In the table below, select a body font size in pixels (px) to display a complete “px to em and percent” conversion table.

Tip: The default font size is usually 16px.

25px1.5625em156.25%

What is the difference between PX, EM and Percent?

Pixel is a static measurement, while percent and EM are relative measurements. The size of an EM or percent depends on its parent. If the text size of body is 16 pixels, then 150% or 1.5 EM will be 24 pixels (1.5 * 16). Look atย CSS Unitsย for more measurement units.
