Tags

Tags are the basic building blocks of HTML that define elements. They are used to mark up the start and end of an HTML element. Tags are enclosed in angle brackets (< >).

There are two types of tags:

  1. Opening Tag: This tag marks the beginning of an element. For example, <p> is an opening tag for a paragraph.
  2. Closing Tag: This tag marks the end of an element. It is similar to the opening tag but includes a forward slash (/). For example, </p> is the closing tag for a paragraph.

Some elements, known as void elements, are self-closing and do not have a closing tag, such as <img> and <br>.

Elements

Elements are the combination of opening tags, content (if any), and closing tags. An element represents a part of the webpage structure and can contain text, attributes, other elements, or a combination of these.

Example

Consider the following HTML snippet:

<p>This is a paragraph.</p>

Heading Element

In HTML, heading tags are used to define headings on a webpage. There are six levels of headings, from <h1> to <h6>, with <h1> being the highest (or most important) level and <h6> being the lowest.

Example

Here's an example demonstrating all six heading tags:

    <h1>This is an H1 heading</h1>
    <h2>This is an H2 heading</h2>
    <h3>This is an H3 heading</h3>
    <h4>This is an H4 heading</h4>
    <h5>This is an H5 heading</h5>
    <h6>This is an H6 heading</h6>
