This is a common XML/SGML terminology problem - people get "tag" and
"element" confused
"<a href='blah'>" is an "A" start *tag*
"</a>" is an "A" end *tag*
"<a href='blah'>LARGE</a>" is an "A" *element*, which is made up of a
start tag, content and end tag.
So: correct, the "A" tag does not contain "LARGE", but the "A" element does.
