What are HTML Elements?

An HTML element consists of a start tag and end tag with the content inserted in between.

HTML Elements

The HTML element is everything from the start tag to the end tag

E.g:

<p>My first program.</p>

<p> and</p> these are the start and end tags.

"My first program" is the content that is inserted between these 2 tags.

<h1></h1> these are tags for heading.

Empty elements do not have an end tag for example <br> element is for line break.

Nested HTML Elements

All HTML documents consist of nested HTML elements.

E.g:

The <html>element defines the whole document and has a start and an end tag .

The element content is another HTML element (the <body>element).

<head></head>,<p>,<body> these all contain nested elements.
