When including header.php in catalog.php, why don't we need to add a closing </html> tag to catalog.php?

There is an opening <html> tag in "header.php". When we include "header.php" at the top of catalog.php, index.php and suggest.php, there is no closing </html> tag. Shouldn't this cause a problem?

The closing tag will be in the footer.php file.

The include in PHP will have the closing </html> tag almost as if you were placing it there
