Index
Classic document elements
This section lists a few HTML elements that will look familiar to users of word processors or desktop publishing programs.
<h1>, <h2>, <h3>, … <h6> – headings
These are headings. The smaller the number, the larger the font size the browser will render the heading in.
<p> – paragraph
This is the paragraph tag. Browsers automatically add some space (margin) before and after each <p> element. The margins can be modified with CSS (with the margin properties).
<span> – span
The span tag by itself has no visual effect but it is extremely useful when you need to style just a portion of text.
You can use it like this:
<h3>Example</h3> <p>This is a paragraph with one <span class="blue">blue</span>word</span>
