The <body> Tag in HTML 5
The <body> tag creates the body section of the document, which contains the actual visible content of the document. The body element is the second of the two elements making up the inner HTML of the top html element, following the </head> end tag for the head element, which is the first element in the top html element inner HTML. The <body> tag is one of the structure tags in HTML. It is also one of the sectioning root tags, which means that the sections and headings inside the body element are not included in the outline of any higher level sections.
