What is the general syntax for two sided HTML tags?

Answer 1

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 attribute="value">Tag Contenttag>

Some attributes are optional. Others are required. It depends entirely on which tag you're using.

Answer 2

There is not really a one-sided tag, but rather there are empty tags and container tags. A container tag has an opening tag and a closing tag - like p or h1, or body, or html. There is the opening tag in brackets, and the closing tag in brackets, but with the forward slash (/) just inside the beginning of the closing tag. "Empty" tags however do not have a closing tag- there is nothing for them to "contain" so they stand alone. Examples include img, meta, frame, br, hr, etc... According to xhtml these tags must still be closed, and they are done so by including a forward slash at the END of the tag, just inside the brackets (so <hr /> <br /> <img src = "somepic.jpg" />, etc..).
