HTML Tags Tutorial

Every HTML document has three major components: the HTML declaration, the head, and the body. The document structure tags are those that define each component. 
 Tagname: <HTML>   
 Purpose:  Declares the document to be an HTML document. All document 
content and supporting HTML code goes between the <HTML> and </HTML> tags.  
   Usage:  <HTML> ... </HTML>  

Example 1: Normal HTML    
   <HTML>  
     ... all content and HTML code goes here ...  
   </HTML>  

Example 2:  Because standards have been introduced for HTML, the same 
can include DOCTYPE

   <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN">  
   <HTML>  
     ... all content and HTML code goes here ...  
   </HTML>

Technically, <!DOCTYPE> is an SGML tag, not an HTML tag, so it is acceptable for it to be outside the <HTML> and </HTML> tags. 

 Tagname: <HEAD>  
 Purpose: Contains the tags that compose the document head.
   Usage: <HEAD> ... </HEAD>
  
Example:  
   <HTML>  
     <HEAD>  
      ... tags making up the document head go here ...  
     </HEAD>  
     ... all other content and HTML code goes here ...  
   </HTML>
