HTML Tutorials: HEAD

Usage Recommendation
use it

illustrates the two sections in HTML: HEAD and BODY

Within <HTML>, the document has two sections to it: <HEAD> and <BODY ...>. <HEAD> is like the cover page of the document. Just as the cover page of a book contains information about the book (such as the title), the <HEAD> section contains information about the document. This information is communicated through the <TITLE> tag (which is required) and the <LINK ...> and <META ...> tags.

this code	produces this
<HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>My Home Page</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <H1>My Home Page</H1> Hi There! </BODY> </HTML>	this page

A more slightly complicated document which uses <LINK ...> and <META ...> might look like this:

this code	produces this
<HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>My Home Page</TITLE> <LINK REL=HOME HREF="/tags/index.html"> <META NAME=AUTHOR CONTENT="Ben Hall"> </HEAD> <BODY> <H1>My Home Page</H1> Hi There! </BODY> </HTML>	this page
