What is a TAG?
Tags are HTML (hypertext markup language) commands. Codes which are typed in a document to control the way the document is displayed by a browser. You must have the tag in the middle of the less (<) and greater (>) than signs. To end the tags use the slash (/) sign after the the second less (<) sign.
Example:
Last update 2-9-99 @8pm.
