Introductory HTML Tags and Their Use

August 2001 Basic page skeleton tags There are two basic parts of every HTML document: the head, and the body. The head is where you will put all of the information concerning your page (such as the title). The body is where everything else goes. All formating on web pages is done through tags. Below are the tags to separate the body and head, and to make a title. All pages have the HTML tag (<html>). Tags are not case sensitive, so you can enter in either lower or upper case, the choice is yours.
