CREATING, SAVING AND VIEWING A HTML DOCUMENT
Creating a HTML document
The essential tags that are required to create a HTML document are:
<HTML>………….</HTML>
<HEAD>………….</HEAD>
<BODY>………….</BODY>
HTML Tags
Tags are instructions that are embedded directly into the text of document.Html Tags are signals to a browser that should do something other than just through text upon the screen.All HTML tags begin with an open angle bracket (<) and end with close angle bracket (>).
HTML tags can be two types:-
1) Paired Tag (Container)
2) Singular Tags (Empty)
1) Paired Tag (Container)
Tags which have both the opening and closing i.e. <TAG> and </TAG> are called container tags.They hold the text and other HTML tags in between the tags. The <HTML>, <HEAD>, <TITLE> and <BODY> tags are all container tags.
Example:
<TAG> this is a container tag. It holds both the text and HTML tag </TAG>
Empty Tags: Tags, which have only opening and no ending,are called empty tags. The <HR>, which is used to draw horizontal, rule across the width of the document, and line break <BR> tags are empty tags.

HTML Tag <HTML>
The <HTML> tag encloses all other HTML tags and associated text within your document. It is an optional tag. You can create an HTML document that omits these tags, and your browser can still read it and display it. But it is always a good form to include the start and stop tags.
The format is:
<HTML>
Your Title and Document (contains text with HTML tags) goes here
</HTML>
Most HTML tags have two parts, an opening tag and closing tag. The closing tag is the same as the opening tag, except for the slash mark e.g</HTML>. The slash mark is always used in closing tags.
