XHTML Tag List

Sometimes XHTML elements are referred to as "tags", though many prefer the term tag strictly in reference to the semantic structures delimiting the start and end of an element.
	XHTML tags are used to mark-up XHTML elements
	Tags in XHTML are always surrounded by characters < and >
	These characters are called angel brackets
	All tags in XHTML come in pairs for example <b> and </b>
	In these pair of tags,the first tag is the start tag,and the second tag is called end tag
	The text that lies between the start tag and the end tag is called the element content
	XHTML tags are case sensitive,

DTD: indicates in which XHTML 1.0 DTD the tag is allowed. S=Strict, T=Transitional, and F=Frameset
