When viewed in a browser, the information within the body element is what is displayed in the browser window, also referred to as the
viewport . This is the content area onlyno browser chrome (which refers to the browser's interface components, such as scrollbars and status bars). Figure 1-3 shows Google in a web browser. Only the displayed content is within the viewport.
