HTML, or HyperText Markup Language is the visual appearance of a web site. You could say it is the language spoken by web browsers that makes it possible to see web contents in your web browser. All web browser understand HTML. HTML 5 is the latest. HTML is maintained by W3C - World Wide Web Consortium.
