DOCTYPE> declaration must be the very first thing in your HTML document, before the <html> tag. The <! DOCTYPE> declaration is not an HTML tag; it is an instruction to the web browser about what version of HTML the page is written in. In HTML 4.01, the <! DOCTYPE> declaration refers to a DTD, because HTML 4.01 was based on SGML. The DTD specifies the rules for the markup language, so that the browsers render the content correctly. For example:

- 8. www.lucideus.com <Text area>TAG The <Textarea> tag defines a multi-line text input control. A text area can hold an unlimited number of characters, and the text renders in a fixed-width font (usually Courier).The size of a text area can be specified by the column and rows attributes, or even better; through CSS' height and width properties.
- 9. www.lucideus.com <Button>TAG The <button> tagdefines a clickable button. Inside a <button> element you can put content, like text or images. This is the difference between this element and buttons created with the <input> element.
- 10. www.lucideus.com <Select>TAG The <select> elementis used to create a drop-down list. The <option> tags inside the <select> element define the available options in the list.

- 12. www.lucideus.com <Field set>TAG The <fieldset> tag is used to group related elements in a form. The <field set> tag draws a box around the related elements.
- 13. www.lucideus.com <label>TAG The <label> tagdefines a label for an <input> element. The <label> element does not render as anything special for the user.

The for attribute of the <label> tag should be equal to the id attribute of the related element to bind them together.
