## 8.3. Sectional Elements

An XHTML document is normally split into two sections. The first section, called the head, contains meta-information about the document, such as its title, the name of the author, the parent document, and so on. The second section, the body, contains content that will be displayed to the user.

These sections are indicated with `head` and `body` elements respectively. These elements are contained within the top-level `html` element.

Example 8.1. Normal XHTML Document Structure
`<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">` `<head>` `<title>``The Document's Title``</title>` `</head>` `<body>` … `</body>` `</html>`
