                                      The <HTML> tag tells the web browser that the text contained between
                  <HTML>              <HTML>  and  </HTML>  is  a  web  page  and  can  be  viewed  using  a  web
                                      browser.


                                      The <HEAD> tag  represents  the  header area of  the  document.  It contains
                  <HEAD>              information  about  the  document  title,  scripts  and  style  definitions  used  in
                                      the document.

                                      The <TITLE> tag represents the title of the document and is used inside the
                  <TITLE>             <HEAD> tag. It appears on the title bar of the browser window. If you do
                                      not want to give title to your web page, you can skip it.

                                      The <BODY> tag defines that section of the HTML document which is visible
                                      on  the  web  browser.  It  contains  all  other  tags  that  define  the  content
                  <BODY
                                      presentation elements such as images, lists, tables, text and links to move
                                      between the webpages.


                 HTML5 provides different types of tags. For example, tag to create different types of headings, to
                 create a paragraph, to insert a line break, to add a horizontal line, etc. Let us learn about some of
                 them in detail.

                      The <Hn> Tag

                 Every chapter in a book has various headings and sub-headings. These are known as levels of headings.
                 The heading tags are used to give similar effect to your web page. These are container tags with a
                 start tag and an end tag. HTML can define up to 6 levels of headings from h1 to h6. h1 is the first level

                 of heading and h6 is the last level of heading/sub-heading. Let us create a web page using heading
                 tags.

























                 The web browser displays each heading with a different heading size.
