A specification for authoring and formatting documents on the World Wide Web. Most people now refer to those documents as "web pages".

It says that the tags on the page are to be interpreted according to a specification called "HTML", version 3.2, and that the specification is owned by W3C. It is usually not necessary to include this statement; by using the opening tag "html" the browser uses the latest HTML DTD by default.
