In [[computing]], an '''HTML element''' (instance) in terms of [[SGML]] is the complete sequence of a start ''tag'' (with [[attribute]]s and their [[attribute value|value]]s), any embedded HTML content, and the end tag. A special case is [[empty element]]s that don't have contents and end tags. Due to the constraints of the [[Document Type Definition|DTD]]s, various parts, including start and end tag, may be omitted in [[HTML]], but not [[XHTML]]. In XHTML the minimized tag syntax for an empty element (abbreviated form of the combination of opening and closing tag) is e.g. <code>&lt;br /></code>.
