A HTML tag is an construct in the HTML language used to identify a page
element's type. For instance the tag <p> identifies the start of a
paragraph, while the tag </p> identifies the end of a paragraph.
Tags are often also used to identify how you would like to display a page
element. For instance, the tag <b> identifies the use of a bold font until
the </b> tag is encountered. The use of CSS style sheets, however, offers a
way for web designers to separate the display of the page elements from the
page structure and the use of these display oriented tags should therefore
be discouraged.
