About these Documents

These documents attempt to document all the HTML (HyperText Mark-up Language) tags recognised by the various WWW (World Wide Web) and HTML browsers.

This information is presented in the form of a Dictionary of HTML listing every known tag and provides examples of its use in a fairly reader friendly manner.

Most of the information you will find here was; discovered accidentally, synthesised through the scrupulous examination of browser code, condensed by filtering of other HTML documents and through the contributions of a few generous people on the net.

I make no guarantees about the quality or accuracy of the information provided to you. These documents were primarily put together for my own use. It just so happens that I think this is important enough to share.

Examples are not always provided. In case of confusion please look at the source of this document.
