Honestly your answer is more complex than on first glance. Are you asking whether you have to create a website with a text editor and raw HTML then yes there are many wysiwyg editors that provide a nice level of abstraction away from the markup language. However if you are asking is the markup language HTML the only way to make a website. The answer is both yes and no. HTML is not a programming language but a markup language defining attributes of text via tags and is defacto web page "language of sorts" however for proof of concept I am sure you could base a site as a git repository or convoluted system of downloading full sets of interlinking documents not using HTML and call it a website but that is not practical for everyday use.. However if HTML does not meet your needs then as others have described you can use JavaScript or VBscript for client side dynamic functions.. On the server end you can augment your web page with php python or perl with SQL in a lamp / wamp / mamp server. Or other routes to add a dynamic experience would be asp or jsp or erlang . So in the end your not just stuck with HTML

All web pages have HTML as an underlying technology. In addition to HTML, there is CSS for adding style and positioning elements, and there is JavaScript (which is optional) but JavaScript adds a programming language that add a dynamic aspect to developing web pages that HTML and CSS alone do not have. These are the browser-side technologies.



In addition to these browser-side technologies, there are server-side technologies such as PHP that processes form data and does other programming tasks on the server-side. Databases such as MySQL are often also on the server-side and are controlled by PHP (or equivalent programming language).



If you're looking for a simple way to develop web-pages, there are programs that let you design your web pages graphically and these programs generate the HTML for you.

You really should use PHP or ASP to do this. HTML will be hard to make do what you want. The page you referred to uses active code and reads the articles from a database so the page is updated instantly when the database is updated. Just do a search for Content Mangement Systems on Yahoo or Google. there are tons of programs that will do this automatically for you and save you coding 100 pages. The big plus is if you add another ariticle it will automatically appear.

no there are n number of ways to design you website, like WordPress, php, .net, java application, Joomla, etc.



Among those WordPress is the best to design your site. Because now a days, if you are going to code and then you want to host, it will take much more time and labor!!!



I'd suggest you to use www.makeanysite.com, here you will get everything FREE!! of cost completely, You will get a ready-made website only to pay hosting charge.

HTML is the only language compatible with browsers, so yes.



There are other languages that can dynamically modify the HTML to present content; however, the underlying language is HTML.
