In web page design, a well-formed tag is one that
is either
- opened and closed,
- an empty element, which still must be terminated,
and is properly nested and does not overlap.
For example, in HTML: <b>word</b> is a well-formed tag, while <b><i>word</i>
is not, since the bold tag is not closed. Empty elements (tags without text in between) can be closed by putting a slash at the
end of the tag, i.e. <img />.
