Abstract
The term tag is ci, to markup languages such as HTML and XML. A markup document grants meaning to text by surrounding or preceding it with a set of characters collectively called a tag. In HTML and XML documents, tags have the form <text> where text defines the meaning of the tag. For instance, a HTML first-level header maybe created simply by surrounding the text with header tags: (<h1>This is a first-level header</h1>). JSP technology provides a standard mechanism whereby a programmer can create his/her own server-side tags. These JSP tags are evaluated on the server, and their results are sent back to the client browser.
