What is HTML? HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is the code used to write webpages. To denote various elements in an HTML document, you use tags. HTML tags consist of a left angle bracket (< ), a tag name, and a right angle bracket (>). The slash and right angle bracket closes the tag(/>). This tells the browser how to display text and images in a document. Here are the basic parts of an HTML Document:    PLACE TITLE OF PAGE HERE     ............ The HTML pair of tags tells the web browser when the HTML document begins and ends. ............ The HEAD of tags contains the header information. ............ The title of your page is placed between the TITLE tags. It will show up in the title bar in the browser window. ............ The BODY holds all the information that will be displayed on the webpage.
