HTML Tags: HTML uses markup tags to describe web pages. HTML markup tags are usually called HTML tags. The properties of tags are listed below.
§ HTML tags are keywords surrounded by angle brackets as in <tag-name>
§ HTML tags normally come in pairs like <tag-name> and </tag-name>, such tags are called paired tags.
§ The first tag in a pair is the start tag, the second tag is the end tag
§ Start and end tags are also called opening tags and closing tags.
§ Some of the tags have only opening tag. These are called empty tags like <BR>, <HR>.
§ Each tag may have attributes in them as in <font color=’red’>, here color is attribute and ‘red’ is its value.
§ No tag in HTML is mandatory. But, a well written HTML document has <HTML>, <HEAD> and <BODY> tags.
§ Tags are not case sensitive i.e. they may be written in lower or upper case letters.
§ Some tags can also be nested within other tags; for example:
<H1> This is my <B> Computer </B> Notes </H1>
§ If a browser cannot interpret a tag, it will be simply ignored.
§ Tags are also called elements of a HTML document.
Example: The following program uses two tags: <BODY> and <H1>
<BODY>
<H1> Hello </H1>
</BODY>
