                           HTML is the primary building block for creating a webpage.


                          Tags that have both opening and closing tags are known as container tags.                                                   HTML COMMENTS

                  Nesting of tags means that you can place a new tag inside another tag before closing the first one.
                  These tags follow the LIFO principle, which stands for Last In, First Out. This means the tag that is                     For example, <!-- This is a comment in HTML -->
                  opened last must be closed first.

                  Let’s learn the basic tags of HTML.                                                                                          Values given to the attributes should be enclosed within the double-quotes.
                                                                                                                                               Tag name should not contain spaces.
                                                                                                                                               There should be no space between < and > in a tag.
                            Tags                                      Description

                                             The <HTML> tag tells the web browser that the text contained between

                                             The <HEAD> tag represents the header area of the document. It
                          <HEAD>             contains information about the document title, scripts and style                                <!DOCTYPE HTML>

                  An attribute is used to define some extra features or properties of an HTML tag. All attributes
                  have two parts: name and value. The ‘name’ is the property that you want to set. The ‘value’ is
                  what you want for the respective property.
