==== make_html_tag_group( NAME[, PARAMS[, TEXT[, LIST]]] ) ====

This method is used internally to do the actual construction of html tag groups.  You can call it directly when you want faster code and/or more control over how tags are made.  The first argument, NAME, is a scalar that defines the actual name of the tag we are making (eg: ’br’); it is case-insensitive.  The optional second argument, PARAMS, is a HASH ref containing attribute names and values for the new tag; the names (keys) are case-insensitive.  Any attribute values which are ARRAY refs are flattened, and the number of tags made is determined by the length of the longest one.  The optional third argument, TEXT, is a HASH ref (or scalar) containing the text that goes between the tag pairs; it is not a tag attribute, but if its an ARRAY ref then its length will influence the number of tags that are made as the length of tag attribute arrays do.  The optional fourth argument, LIST, is a boolean/scalar which indicates whether this method returns the new tags in an ARRAY
