HTML ELEMENTS
To write HTML, we pick from a set of standard
Elements that all browsers recognize
Common Elements include:
<p> element - represents a paragraph of text
<h1> element - represents the main header on a page
<img> element - embeds an image
<form> element - represents a form
HTML TAGS
We create elements by writing tags.
Most (but not all) elements consist of an
opening and closing tag.

Opening Tag
