Yes.
<FORM> is the opening tag whereas </FORM> is the closing tag. This </TAG> to close tags is applicable for most tages.
ex: <HTML> </HTML>
<BODY> </BODY> etc...
slash
The closing tag's opening symbol (the less-than sign) is immediately followed by a slash (sometimes called a "forward slash" to distinguish it from back slash.)Here's the opening for a paragraph tag:And the closingAs you can see, the difference here is a slash. Also not that the slash is used at the ending of "empty elements" in any version of HTML when trying to comply with XML syntax. So, in XHTMLShould instead be writtenThis only effects XML compliant versions of HTML.
An opening tag is used to indicate the starting point of an action by a tag. The closing tag shows when to stop this action. The front slash is added to a tag, before the tagname, to indicate that it is a closing tag. What is between the tags is effectively selected for this action. To start bolding for example, we use <b> and to stop we use </b> as follows: This text is <b> bold </b> text. The word bold in the above sentence would be bolded, as that is what is enclosed by the opening and closing tags. The text outside of that is as normal.
The front slash is added to a tag, before the tagname, to indicate that it is a closing tag: <html> is an opening tag. </html> is a closing tag. <title> is an opening tag. </title> is a closing tag.
The frontslash tag. For example, here it is used in the bold tag. <b>Bold text</b>
You are probably referring to the front slash. It, along with the less than sign and the greater than sign and the name of the tag, form an end tag, like this: </html> The opening tag does not have the front slash, so it is the character that makes the difference.
It is used for closing tags and helps you distinguish it from an opening tag. For a lot of tags you need to know where their impact starts and ends, so you need opening and closing tags. If you wanted to bold one word in the middle of a sentence then you would start bolding at the beginning of it and end bolding at the end of the word. To differentiate the two tags, you need the forward slash, like this. This sentence contains one <b>word</b> that is bolded. Some tags don't have closing tags, like the br tag. It is now common to put in a slash at the end of those tags like this: <br/>
For two-sided HTML tags, the general syntax is the tag name, any attributes, the tags content, and then the closing tag. Like so:Tag ContentSome attributes are optional. Others are required. It depends entirely on which tag you're using.
Pair tag have a closing at the end eg: <b> text </b> Impair tag does not have closing
There are many of them. The convention now is to add a front slash into the tag, after the tagname and any attributes that might be in them. Examples include: <hr/> <br/> <img src="picture.jpg" /> <input type="text" /> <button />
"Center TextThe opening tag for centering is , and the closing tag is . If you do not use the closing tag, then all text after the opening tag will be displayed centered."
The correct HTML form for BR is . BR is a tag to force a line break. It was introduced as a single tag, with no companion tag. The and tags work with older HTML, but for HTML 5, you need to have an ending tag for each tag. You can create your own ending tag by adding forward slash within the single tag: .
