The Basic HTML Framework
Learn the basic tag framework for HTML pages.


An HTML document begins with 4 sets of nested container tags.

<HTML>
     <HEAD>
         <TITLE> Page Title </TITLE>
     </HEAD>
     <BODY>
          Text of document.
     </BODY>
</HTML>


<HTML>
The <HTML> </HTML> container surrounds, or contains, the entire HTML document, which is displayed at the top of the Web browser.
<HEAD>
The <HEAD> </HEAD> container contains the document's header information, which specifies how an HTML document is to be interpreted.
<TITLE>
The <TITLE> </TITLE> container lives within the HEAD container and contains the title of the document.
<BODY>
The <BODY> </BODY> container contains the main content of the HTML document.
