Are HTML, JavaScript and CSS all related?


Is there some kind of relation between HTML, JavaScript and CSS? I saw an image on the internet where each language had a colorful logo and they were all done in the exact same style, leading me to believe they are all somehow related or offshoots of one another or influenced by eachother or something similar...
Thank you

HTML is essentially the backbone of every webpage.
CSS makes it look pretty.
JavaScript makes it do fancy stuff.

Are you trying to learn how to make websites? If so, you might want to look up W3Schools and CodeCademy.

Certainly. And here's how:
  1. HTML ... the "HyperText Markup Language" ... is the agreed-upon secret-code that the web-server at "www.linuxquestions.org" just used(!) to send to your web-browser a complete description of the web-page that you're looking at right now.
  2. JavaScript is a programming language(!) that your browser knows how to execute. It's included (maybe ...) as part of the web-page, and it does things such as "what happens when you click that button."
  3. CSS is a very-clever tool that allows a designer to specify how a particular thing (on a web page) "looks," by giving everything on the page "that should look the same way" an identically-named "style." (You might have noticed that, on the right-hand side of this very page, boxes named "My LQ," "Write for LQ," and "Main Menu" 'look the same.' This is why. They're all referencing the same CSS style.)

I have a Firefox build that has no Flash player and which can play H264 video and MP3 audio. It's playing that video just fine.
