You use the slash to close a tag. Close tags in the same order you opened them in. Here's an example. <html> <head> </head> </html> Also, just to add onto TechTro's answer, XHTML will require you to close all tags (including empty tags).

HTML elements with no content are called empty elements. <br> is an empty element without a closing tag(the <br> tag defines a line break). Empty elements can be "closed" in the opening tag like this: <br />. HTML5 does not require empty elements to be closed.
