(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
An HTML tag is a code used in the World Wide Web markup language HTML to denote the boundaries of an element, and, through its attribute values, set properties of that element. An element is usually a chunk of (marked-up) text: most elements can contain other elements. For instance, the <em> tag tells the browser that a certain chunk of emphasized text begins here. A browser may render this emphasis by displaying the text in bold print on the screen, or by pronouncing it louder than normal text through the computer speakers. Elements that can contain other elements also have a corresponding "end" tag, which is identical to the opening tag except that it begins with a slash (i.e. </em> for the emphasis tag).
