They are put in angle brackets and are used to mark up text elements. Tags need to be opened (e.g. ''<a>'') and closed (e.g. ''</a>'') in order to be interpreted correctly. Tags that aren't opened and closed correctly create errors in the source code and can lead to display problems in the browser. **Example** The ''<p>'' tag is used to mark up separate paragraphs: <html><p>This text should be displayed as a paragraph with a line break at its end.</p></html>
