The Structure of an HTML Document
The last tag uses a slash (/) to identify the end of the tag.
Generally, HTML tags work in pairs — the first tag defines something, and
the second tag (the one beginning with a slash) marks the end of that definition.
If you omit one of the or tags, your HTML Web page
won’t appear.
HTML tags are not case sensitive, so you could’ve defined the tags as
and .
Creating a title
Most Web pages include a title, which appears in the title bar of a window.
To display text in a window’s title bar, type text in between the and
tags inside the and tags like this:
This text appears in the title bar.
Creating the body text
The bulk of a Web page falls within the and tags. To display
text, you need to use the paragraph tags and like this:
This text appears in the title bar.
This text appears on the web page.
If you want to make sure a line of text breaks at a certain point, you can use
the tag, such as
This text appears in the title bar.
This text appears on the web page.This appears
on a separate line.
