Some common HTML tags include:
| <head></head> | Defines the header of an HTML document |
| <title></title> | Defines the title of an HTML document. The title appears in the title bar of your browser window. |
| <body></body> | Defines the body of an HTML document. All of the content that appears on your page goes between these two tags. |
| <h1></h1> . . . <h6></h6> | Defines section headings. <h1> is the largest section heading and <h6> is the smallest section heading. |
| <p></p> | Text between these tags will be displayed as a paragraph. Most browsers separate paragraphs with a blank line. |
| <em></em> | Surrounds text to be emphasized. The text will usually be displayed in italics. |
| <strong></strong> | Surrounds text to be displayed with strong emphasis. The text will usually be displayed in bold. |
| <ul></ul> | Surrounds an unordered list. A bullet will precede each list item. |
| <ol></ol> | Surrounds an ordered list. A number will precede each list item. |
| <li></li> | Defines an individual item in a list |
| <a href="http://www.something.edu/"></a> | Defines a hyperlink. Text between these tags will be highlighted. This highlighted text is a link to another web page. |
