Encloses the entire document.
<HEAD>.....< /HEAD>
Encloses the head of the document. The following optional tags are placed inside the head.

  Specifies the base URL of the document. This is used when dereferencing relative URLs in the page.

  Also specifies the base target frame that all links will default to. See the LINK tag for possible values used in TARGET.
4. <META attribut1 attribute2>
  This element can be used to specify name/value pairs describing various properties of the document. Below are some examples:
  To have your page automatically reloaded every X seconds, use the following:
  <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT=X >
  To have a different page automatically loaded after X seconds, use the following:
  <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="X; URL=http://some.address/file.html">
  To specify an expiration date for the page so that it will be reloaded after a certain date, use:
  <META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="Mon, 23 Sep 1996 01:21:00 GMT">
  To specify keywords for certain search services to use, do the following:
  <META HTTP-EQUIV="Keywords" CONTENT="keyword1, keyword2, ...">
  To specify a description of your page for certain search services to use, do the following:
  <META HTTP-EQUIV="Description" CONTENT="Describe your site here....">
5. <LINK attribute=" HREF="..." >

  1. REL="..."--Specifies the type of relationship of the link to this page. Possible values are: "home", "toc" (table of contents), "index", "glossary", "copyright", "bookmark", "up", "next", "previous", and "help".
  2. REV="..."--Used instead of REL, this specifies a reverse relationship from this page to the link. Possible values are: "made" (author, set HREF=email address) and all the ones used in REL.
  3. HREF="..."--Specifies the address of the link.
  4. TITLE="..."--Specifies a title for the link.
<BODY attribute1="..." attribute2="...">.....< /BODY>

  NOTE:Color is always expressed as RGB (Red Green Blue), where each color has a value between 0 and 255 expressed in hex notation. For example, BGCOLOR=#FFFF00 sets the background color to yellow. For more information check out Colors of the Web.
<BASEFONT attribute=">
Sets the default font properties for the entire page.
1. SIZE="..."--Sets the size of the font to any number between 1 and 7 with 3 being default. Relative sizes also work, e.g. SIZE=+2 .
2. COLOR="..."--Specifies the default font color for the page.
3. Name="..."--Specifies the typeface of the default font.
<Hn>...< /Hn>
Makes the enclosed text a heading of various sizes where n is any number ranging from 1 to 6, and 1 creates the biggest heading while 6 creates the smallest.
<ISINDEX>
Displays a text box indicating the presence of a searchable index. Simply adding this tag will not create a searchable page. The server must be set up to support it.
1. ACTION="..."--Specifies the location of the gateway program to which the search string should be passed.
2. PROMPT="..."--Specifies an alternate prompt for the text box.
