How to define the document’s body in HTML5 ?

The document’s body in HTML5 is defined by the <body> tag which is placed with in the <html> tags and just after the <head> tag.
The body tag can include:

  • headings tags : <h1>, <h2>, <h3> and so on.
  • paragraph tag: <p>
  • line break tag: <br>
  • horizontal rule tag: <hr>
  • image and video tags: <img> <video>
  • list tags: <ul> and <ol>
