Do the tips of your fingers go on the frets or between the frets when playing the guitar?

When playing fretted notes, place the tip of your finger between both frets. The higher of the 2 frets determines the pitch that the string creates.
Additional advice for experienced players: on the lower, wider frets, keep your fingertips pressed about 3/4s of the way up the fret instead of in the dead center. This produces the best tone and minimizes string buzzing.
