REFLECTION

In this lesson, null, you will create your first web page. In order to create your page, you need to learn a few basic HTML elements first.
    HTML tags are used to tell the browser what to do with the text, graphics, and other items in a file. HTML tags are always enclosed in angle brackets . When a browser finds something in angle brackets, it treats it as a tag, not as text. Therefore, tags do not display on the screen. Tags are like commands you send to the browser.
   Keep in mind, null, that there are two types of tags: standalone tags and container tags. Standalone tags are used for elements which have no logical beginning or end. One example of a standalone tag is the br tag, which is used for carriage returns/blank lines, like this one:

   Most tags, though, are used in pairs. Each pair has an opening (or start) tag, and a closing (or end) tag. You can think of a pair of tags as a kind of container. Tags tell the browser software what to do with whatever they contain. Most of the tags you will work with are container tags.
