All you need is four HTML "tags" and some text to build the world's simplest web page.
The HTML tag tells the Browser that an HTML document is coming
The HEAD tag tells the Browser basic information about the web page
The TITLE tag, which goes between the HEAD tags, tells the browser the
title of the web page
And the BODY tag tells the Browser that what's coming is the web page
itself.
You will notice that each of these tags has two parts, a front tag and a closing tag. They are like brackets, affecting only what is between them. If you forget to "close" a tag, something will usually go wrong!
The HTML code for the world's simplest web page would thus look like this:
<HTML>
<HEAD> <TITLE> Web Page Title Goes
Here</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
Text of world's simplest page goes here between BODY tags
</BODY>
</HTML>
