HTML

Web page is created with the help of a programming language known as HTML. HTML stands
for HyperText Markup Language. All the code for the web page is written in an editor like
Notepad, etc. with the help of HTML commands. The special codes used in HTML are known as
tags. Let us start to explore the world of HTML.

Tags

Tags are enclosed within angle brackets (<>). The tags are closed with a slash before the tag
name (</>). There are some tags which are not closed.

Terms to remember

Ÿ Tag: used to specify the regions of the HTML document, which a browser will read later. Tags

will look like this: <tag>
