HTML’s Fallen Children! (Part 4)

Tram Ho

After a while, I accidentally found out some interesting HTML tags, so I wanted to share them with everyone, if you know, then let it go!

22. <dfn>

The first will be the <dfn> tag, which is used to define a term (which appears for the first time in the document) in the HTML. Its usage is similar to words in italics in the middle of a paragraph.

The closest parent tag of the <dfn> tag must contain a definition / explanation of the term inside the <dfn> tag.

Most browsers will render an <dfn> element with the following CSS format:

The <dfn> is <dfn> by most browsers, so feel free to use it!

23. <s>

Next is the <s> tag, which is used to designate a text that is no longer correct, exact, or relevant. The text will be displayed with a dash (strikethrough) line.

Since it is a dash, the CSS format of the tag will look like this:

The <s> tag will not be used to define the replacement text or to remove, if you want to handle such cases, you should use the <del> tag.

24. <legend>

The <legend> tag defines a caption for <fieldset> elements.

Syntax of use:

The <legend> attribute is align: top / bottom / left / right and the attributes of this tag are not supported in HTML5.

Usage example:

This tag is also supported in most browsers.

25. <xmp>

The <xmp> defines the pre-formatted text. This tag is the old tag (Deprecated Tag). For example:

The result of the above code will be:

26. <kbd>

The <kbd > tag is the phrase tag. It defines the information entered from the keyboard. It’s a phrase.

This tag is used when a simple document only needs to display the text the user enters from the keyboard, not to be confused with the <input> tag.

The default CSS format for this tag is:

summary

Above are some of the tags that are seldom used and interesting that I know. Through the sharing, I hope to inspire you to have new ideas and find some use cases for these tags.
