Introduction to HTML - Part 2 (Tags)

Within a document, different structural elements are denoted by tags like this:


<TAG> ... some text ... </TAG>

Plus,

Tags must be properly nested. For example:


<P><EM>Some emphasized text</EM></P>      Correct
<P><EM>Some emphasized text</P></EM>      Incorrect

Here are a few very basic HTML tags:

Tag	Description	Example
<P> ... </P>	Paragraph	This is a paragraph
<H1> ... </H1>	Header 1	Header 1
<H2> ... </H2>	Header 2	Header 2
<H3> ... </H3>	Header 3	Header 3
<H4> ... </H4>	Header 4	Header 4
<H5> ... </H5>	Header 5	Header 5
<H6> ... </H6>	Header 6	Header 6
<EM> ... </EM>	Emphasized text	Emphasized
<B> ... </B>	Boldface text	Boldface
<TT> ... </TT>	Use monospace teletype-style font	`Teletype`
