The Grammar
The grammar is a composite of the HTML 2.0 standard tags and special extensions to the language as enabled by the latest versions of NCSA Mosaic, Netscape Communication's Netscape Navigator, and Microsoft's Internet Explorer.
The rules are in alphabetical order. The starting rule for an entire document is named html_document.
