The title of a document
The title information inside a head element is not displayed in the browser window.
One target for all links
This example demonstrates how to use the base tag to let all the links on a page open in a new window. The Head Element
The head element contains general information, also called meta-information, about a document. Meta means "information about".
You can say that meta-data means information about data, or meta-information means information about information. Information Inside the Head Element
The elements inside the head element should not be displayed by a browser.
According to the HTML standard, only a few tags are legal inside the head section. These are: , , , , <style>, and <script>. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Look at the following illegal construct: <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<head><br />
<p>This is some text</p><br />
</head><br />
<br />
In this case the browser has two options:<br />
<ul><li>Display the text because it is inside a paragraph element</li>
<li>Hide the text because it is inside a head element</li>
</ul> If you put an HTML element like <h1> or <p> inside a head element like this, most browsers will display it, even if it is illegal.<br />
Should browsers forgive you for errors like this? We don't think so. Others do.<br />
