How long have you been working on this? Based upon your profile, you haven't even finished the course yet, so I imagine you've only just begun this learning journey into web development.
Just like all subjects, it's something that you learn, study and practice each day in order to build upon your skill and hone it. The more that you work with it, the more that you'll remember. The more situations you find yourself in, the more points of reference you have for future projects. So each and every day you want to put in some effort toward your goal. We don't live in a stagnant universe, so all things are ALWAYS in motion; stagnation is non-existence. As such, you're always doing 1 of 2 things each day, you're either taking steps and moving forward or you're not taking steps and you're moving backwards.
Here is a technique that I personally use with my learning:
Read through the entire language/course even if you don't fully understand it yet. Practice what you could remember. Read through the entire course again, but this time write down notes of any concept you still don't fully understand. Afterwards use your notes to extensively research each of the things you still don't fully understand and then practice those concepts to solidify your learning. Repeat this process until you've mastered the particular skill.
Also, if you need to write down the tags and keep a reference near you, that's perfectly fine! As they say, if you don't have the resources then be resourceful. You're not taking a test in school, so use as many cheat sheets as you want.
Over time you'll begin to memorize the tags and syntax, just like over time one becomes better at verbal/written languages. With consistent practice, it begins to stick over time, so there is no shortcut other than consistent hard work and study.

You're welcome, Subhajeet. I wish you the best of luck in your learning! You're making great progress, so don't be too hard on yourself; you'll be a master web dev before you know it.
I notice you're taking Java and C# as well. Do you have any particular long term goal or are you just checking things out to see what you like? If you have a particular vision for yourself right now, I could possibly provide you with more advice that's tailored to what you're wanting to do.

Thanks Jacob. Will start with your technique. Just started html 2 days back and 70% of the content is done.
