What needs to be closed is the text between the anchor tags.  That text 
could be more than one paragraph.  The appearance of that text is what 
tells the viewer the state of the link: unvisited, active, and visited 
which can be set in your style sheet:

|A:link    { color: red }
A:active  { color: blue; font-size: 125% }
A:visited { color: green; font-size: 85% }|
