And this is what is would like after scripting that code.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5

What the tags mean

This statement needs to be remembered, but will be noted when it dose not need to be used. All tags like <html> tag needs to be closed. By that you need to after all the content for that tag is complete, then you put a front slash in front of the word. So in our case it would look like this </html> tag. So know the <html> tag is closed.

The <html> tag defines the whole page as you can tell from the basic page setup. It starts and ends the whole scripting part. Without this tag the browser wouldn�t know what to do with the script it was given to open.

The <head> tag can hold much more than what was shown. But that is not a concern right now. The only tag that is inside the <head> tag is the <title> tag. Putting tags inside other tags is called nesting and you can almost nest all tags. the <title> tag allows you to put what the page is up in the title bar.

The tag that holds all the content is the <body> tag. All the content for the web page goes in between these tags, <body> and </body>.
