HTML is written in the form of HTML elements consisting of tags enclosed in angle brackets (like
<html>
), within the web page content. HTML tags most commonly come in pairs like <h1>
and </h1>
, although some tags, known as empty elements, are unpaired, for example <img>
. The first tag in a pair is the start tag, and the second tag is the end tag (they are also called opening tags and closing tags). In between these tags web designers can add text, tags, comments and other types of text-based contenThe purpose of a web browser is to read HTML documents and compose them into visible or audible web pages. The browser does not display the HTML tags, but uses the tags to interpret the content of the page.
