Note: Feel free to use <b>
and <i>
in HTML5, but their usage has changed a bit. <b>
is meant to highlight words or phrases without conveying additional importance while <i>
is mostly for voice, technical terms, etc.
Example addresses
Here are two examples of how the <address>
tag can be used:
Example abbreviations
Abbreviations with a title
attribute have a light dotted bottom border and a help cursor on hover. This gives users extra indication something will be shown on hover.
Add the initialism
class to an abbreviation to increase typographic harmony by giving it a slightly smaller text size.
HTML is the best thing since sliced bread.
An abbreviation of the word attribute is attr.
Blockquotes

<small> |

To include a blockquote, wrap <blockquote>
around any HTML as the quote. For straight quotes we recommend a <p>
.Include an optional <small>

before it for styling purposes.
- <blockquote>
