IDENTIFYING THE PARTS OF A TAG
Up to this point, I've used the terms tag and element more or less interchangeably. However,
the element is just one part of a tag. Each tag has attributes and the attributes have values. So,

Element:
h e name
Attribute:
Some characteristic of the element
Values:
A state or condition of the attribute
