HTML CHEAT SHEET

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) has come a long way


since Tim Berners-Lee invented it back in 1991. Today
HTML5 is the standard version and it's supported by all
modern web browsers. Our HTML
cheat sheet gives you a full list of all the HTML elements, including
descriptions, code examples and live previews. Simply scroll
down to browse all HTML tags alphabetically or browse
tags by their category.

HTML TAG
Speci တဠ es an html document. The HTML <html> element (or
HTML root element) represents the root of an HTML
document. All other elements must be descendants of this
element. Since the <html> element is the တဠ rst in a
document other than comments, it is called the root element.
Although this tag can be implied, or not required, with HTML,
it is required to be opened and closed in XHTML.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) xmlns +
global attributes

Code example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>...</head>
<body>...</body>
</html>
Back to categories
BASE TAG
Speci တဠ es URL which non-absolute URLs are relative to. The HTML
<base> element speci တဠ es the base URL to use for all relative
URLs contained within a document. There can be only one
<base> element in a document.

Attributes (modiတဠers)
href | target (_self | _blank | _parent | _top) + global attributes

Code example

<base
href="http://www.DIGITAL.COM/page.html"
>

HEAD TAG
First element of the HTML document. Collection of metadata
for the Document. The HTML <head> element provides
general information (metadata) about the document,
including its title and links to its scripts and style sheets.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<html>
<head>
<title>Document title</title>
</head>
</html>

LINK TAG
Other resources related to the document. The HTML <link>
element speci တဠ es relationships between the current
document and an external resource. Possible uses for this
element include de တဠ ning a relational framework for
navigation. This Element is most used to link to style
sheets.
Attributes (modiတဠers)
href | rel | media | hre†ဠ ang | type | sizes | crossorigin | integrity +
global attributes

Code example

<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet">

META TAG
Document metadata that can't be expressed with other
elements. The HTML <meta> element represents any
metadata information that cannot be represented by one
of the other HTML meta-related elements (<base>, <link>,
<script>, <style> or <title>). Depending on the attributes
set, the kind of metadata can be one of the following: If
name is set, it is document-level metadata, applying to the
whole page. If http-equiv is set, it is a pragma directive, i.e.
information normally given by the web server about how
the web page should be served. If charset is set, it is a
charset declaration, i.e. the charset used for the serialized
form of the webpage. If itemprop is set, it is user-de တဠ ned
metadata, transparent for the user-agent as the semantics of
the metadata is user-speciတဠc.

Attributes (modiတဠers)
charset | content | http-equiv | name + global attributes

Code example

<meta charset="utf‐8">

STҮLE TAG
Embed style information in the documents. The HTML
<style> element contains style information for a document, or
part of a document. By default, the style instructions written
inside that element are expected to be CSS.

the title of the document, shown in a browser's title bar or
on the page's tab. It can only contain text, and any
contained tags are ignored.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<title>This is the page title</title>

Back to categories

ADDRESS TAG
The HTML <address> element supplies contact
information for its nearest <article> or <body> ancestor; in
the latter case, it applies to the whole document.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<address>Review Squirrel<br>99 Elizabeth


Street<br> Sydney<br> Australia </address>

ARTICLE TAG
Section of the page content, such as a blog or forum post. The HTML
<article> element represents a self-contained composition
in a document, page, application, or site, which is intended
to be independently distributable or reusable (e.g., in
syndication). This could be a forum post, a magazine or
newspaper article, a blog entry, an object, or any other
independent item of content. Each <article> should be
identi တဠ ed, typically by including a heading (<h1>-<h6>
element) as a child of the <article> element.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<article class="ureview">
<p>I love this tool.</p>
<footer>
<p>

ASIDE TAG
Content related to surrounding elements that doesn't
belong inline, such as a advertising or quotes. The HTML
<aside> element represents a section of the page with
content connected tangentially to the rest, which could be
considered separate from that content.
These sections are often represented as sidebars or inserts.
They often contain the de တဠ nitions on the sidebars, such as
de တဠ nitions from the glossary; there may also be other
types of information, such as related advertisements; the
biography of the author; web applications; pro တဠ le information
or related links on the blog.

Attributes

links to related documents.
Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<footer>Some copyright info goes


here</footer>

H1 TO H6 TAG
Heading for the current section. Heading elements
implement six levels of document headings, <h1> is the
most important and <h6> is the least. A heading element
brie†ဠ y describes the topic of the section it introduces.
Heading information may be used by user agents, for
example, to construct a table of contents for a document
automatically.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<h1>Headin level 1</h1>


g
<h2>Headin level 2</h2>
g
<h3>Headin level 3</h3>
g

g
<h5>Headin level 5</h5>
g
<h6>Headin level 6</h6>
g

HEADER TAG
Navigation or introductory elements for the current
section. The HTML <header> element represents a group
of introductory or navigational aids. It may contain some
heading elements but also other elements like a logo,
wrapped section's header, a search form, and so on.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<header>Logo</header>
HGROUP TAG
The HTML <hgroup> Element (HTML Headings Group
Element) represents the heading of a section. It de တဠ nes a
single title that participates in the outline of the document
as the heading of the implicit or explicit section that it
belongs to. Its text for the outline algorithm is the text of
the တဠ rst HTML Heading Element of highest rank (i.e., the
တဠ rst <h1>, <h2>, <h3>, <h4>, <h5> or <h6> with the
smallest number among its descendants) and the rank is
the rank of this very same HTML Heading Element.
Therefore this element groups several headings,
contributing only the main one to the outline of the
document. It allows associating secondary titles, like
subheadings, alternative titles, or even taglines, with the
main heading, without polluting the outline of the
document.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<hgroup>
<h1>Main title</h1>
<h2>Secondary title</h2>
</hgroup>

NAV TAG
A section of a page that links to other pages. The HTML
<nav> element (HTML Navigation Element) represents a
section of a page that links to other pages or to parts
within the page: a section with navigation links.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<nav>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
SECTION TAG
Contains of elements grouped by theme, for example a
chapter or tab box. The HTML <section> element represents a
generic section of a document, i.e., a thematic grouping of
content, typically with a heading. Each <section> should be
identi တဠ ed, typically by including a heading (<h1>-<h6>
element) as a child of the <section> element.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<section><h1>Heading</h1><p>Bunch of awesome
content</p></section>

BLOCKQUOTE TAG
Quote from another source. The HTML <blockquote>
Element (or HTML Block Quotation Element) indicates that the
enclosed text is an extended quotation. Usually, this is
rendered visually by indentation (see Notes for how to
change it). A URL for the source of the quotation may be
given using the cite attribute, while a text representation
of the source can be given using the <cite> element.

Attributes (modi တဠ ers)


cite + global attributes

Code example

<blockquote cite="https://DIGITAL.COM">
<p>This is a quote taken from Review
Squirrel.
</p></blockquote>

Back to categories
BR TAG
Line break. The HTML element line break <br> produces a
line break in text (carriage-return). It is useful for writing a
poem or an address, where the division of lines is signi တဠ cant.
Do not use <br> to increase the gap between lines of text;
use the CSS margin property or the
<p> element.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<p>Review Squirrel<br>99 Elizabeth


Street<br>Australia</p>

DD TAG
Description, de တဠ nition, or value, part of a term- description
group in a description list. The HTML <dd> element
(HTML Description Element) indicates the description of a
term in a description list (<dl>) element. This element
can occur only as a child element of a description list and
it must follow a <dt> element.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<dl>
<dt>Review Squirrel</dt>
<dd>Helps you find the best tools for
running a small business website</dd>
</dl>

DIV TAG
Container or section with no semantic meaning. The
HTML <div> element (or HTML Document Division
Element) is the generic container for †ဠ ow content, which
does not inherently represent anything. It can be used to
group elements for styling purposes (using the class or id
attributes), or because they share attribute values, such as
lang. It should be used only when no other semantic element
(such as <article> or <nav>) is appropriate.
Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<div><p>Any kind of content here. Such as


<p>,
<table>. You name it!</p></div>

DL TAG
An association list consisting of zero or more name-value
groups (a description list). The HTML <dl> element (or
HTML Description List Element) encloses a list of pairs of
terms and descriptions. Common uses for this element are
to implement a glossary or to display metadata (a list of
key-value pairs). Prior to HTML5, <dl> was known as a
De တဠ nition List.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<dl>
<dt>Review Squirrel</dt>
<dd>Helps you find the best tools for
running a small business website</dd>
</dl>

DT TAG
Term, or name, part of a term-description group in a
description list. The HTML <dt> element (or HTML De တဠ nition
Term Element) identi တဠ es a term in a de တဠ nition list. This
element can occur only as a child element of a <dl>. It is
usually followed by a <dd> element; however, multiple <dt>
elements in a row indicate several terms that are all
de တဠ ned by the immediate next <dd> element.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes
Code example
<dl>
<dt>Review Squirrel</dt>
<dd>Helps you find the best tools for
running a small business website</dd>
</dl>

FIGCAPTION TAG
Caption or legend for the တဠ gure element. The HTML
<တဠ gcaption> element represents a caption or a legend
associated with a တဠ gure or an illustration described by the
rest of the data of the <တဠ gure> element which is its
immediate ancestor which means <တဠ gcaption> can be the
တဠ rst or last element inside a <တဠ gure> block. Also, the HTML
Figcaption Element is optional; if not provided, then the parent
တဠ gure element will have no caption.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<figure>
<img
src="http://www.example.com/picture.png"
alt="An awesome picture">
<figcaption>A picture</figcaption>
</figure>

FIGURE TAG
Contains elements related to single concept, such as an
illustration or code example. The HTML <တဠ gure> element
represents self- contained content, frequently with a caption
(<တဠ gcaption>), and is typically referenced as a single unit.
While it is related to the main
†ဠ ow, its position is independent of the main †ဠ ow. Usually
this is an image, an illustration, a diagram, a code snippet, or
a schema that is referenced in the main text, but that can be
moved to another page or to an appendix without a†‐ecting
the main †ဠ ow.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example
<figure>
<img
src="http://www.example.com/picture.png"
alt="An awesome picture">
<figcaption>A picture</figcaption>
</figure>

HR TAG
Paragraph-level thematic break. The HTML <hr> element
represents a thematic break between paragraph-level
elements (for example, a change of scene in a story, or a
shift of topic with a section). In previous versions of
HTML, it represented a horizontal rule. It may still be
displayed as a horizontal rule in visual browsers, but is
now de တဠ ned in semantic terms, rather than presentational
terms.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<p>This is the first paragraph of text.</p>


<hr><p>This is second paragraph of text.</p>

LI TAG
List item. The HTML <li> element (or HTML List Item Element)
is used to represent an item in a list. It must be contained
in a parent element: an ordered list (<ol>), an unordered
list (<ul>), or a menu (<menu>). In menus and unordered
lists, list items are usually displayed using bullet points. In
ordered lists, they are usually displayed with an ascending
counter on the left, such as a number or letter.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) value +
global attributes

Code example

<ol>
<li>third item</li>
</ol>

MAIN TAG
Speci တဠ es the main content area of an HTML document. The HTML
<main> element represents the main content of the
<body> of a document or application. The main content
area consists of content that is directly related to, or
expands upon the central topic of a document or the central
functionality of an application. This content should be unique
to the document, excluding any content that is repeated
across a set of documents such as sidebars, navigation
links, copyright information, site logos, and search forms
(unless the document's main function is as a search form).

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<main>
<h1>Apples</h1>
<p>The apple is the pomaceous fruit of
the apple tree.</p>
<article>
<p>The apple is the pomaceous fruit of
the apple tree.</p>
</article>
</main>

OL TAG
Ordered list. The HTML <ol> Element (or HTML Ordered List
Element) represents an ordered list of items. Typically,
ordered-list items are displayed with a preceding numbering,
which can be of any form, like numerals, letters or Romans
numerals or even simple bullets. This numbered style is not
de တဠ ned in the HTML description of the page, but in its
associated CSS, using the list-style-type property. There is
no limitation to the depth and overlap of lists de တဠ ned with
the <ol> and <ul> elements.

Attributes (modiတဠers)
start | reversed | type + global attributes
Code example

<ol>
<li>first item</li>
<li>second item</li>
<li>third item</li>
</ol>

P TAG
Paragraph content. The HTML <p> element (or HTML
Paragraph Element) represents a paragraph of text.
Paragraphs are usually represented in visual media as blocks
of text that are separated from adjacent blocks by vertical
blank space and/or တဠrst-line indentation. Paragraphs are
block-level elements.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<p>This is the first paragraph of text.</p>


<p>This is second paragraph of text.</p>

PRE TAG
A block of preformatted text. The HTML <pre> element
(or HTML Preformatted Text) represents preformatted text.
Text within this element is typically displayed in a non-
proportional ("monospace") font exactly as it is laid out in the
တဠ le. Whitespace inside this element is displayed as typed.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<pre>
body
{
background‐color:red;
}
UL TAG
Unordered list. The HTML <ul> element (or HTML
Unordered List Element) represents an unordered list of
items, namely a collection of items that do not have a
numerical ordering, and their order in the list is meaningless.
Typically, unordered-list items are displayed with a bullet,
which can be of several forms, like a dot, a circle or a squared.
The bullet style is not de တဠ ned in the HTML description of the
page, but in its associated CSS, using the list-style-type
property.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<ul>
<li>first item</li>
<li>second item</li>
<li>third item</li>
</ul>

Back to categories

A TAG
Hyperlink (a hypertext anchor). The HTML Anchor Element
(<a> tag) de တဠ nes a hyperlink to a location on the same
page or any other page on the Web. It can also be used (in
an obsolete way) to create an anchor point - a destination
for hyperlinks within the content of a page, so that links
aren't limited to connecting simply to the top of a page.

Attributes (modiတဠers)
href | hre†ဠ ang | media | rel | target (_self | _blank | _parent | _top) |
type | download | ping | referrerpolicy + global attributes

attribute must contain this full description and nothing
else.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<p>This is <abbr title="Hypertext Markup


Language">HTML</abbr></p>

B TAG
Stylistically separated text of equal importance, such as a
product name. The HTML <b> Element represents a span
of text stylistically di†‐erent from normal text, without
conveying any special importance or relevance. It is
typically used for keywords in a summary, product names
in a review, or other spans of text whose typical
presentation would be boldfaced. Another example of its use
is to mark the lead sentence of each paragraph of an
article.

Attributes
(modi တဠ ers) Global
attributes

Code example

<p>This article describes several <b>text‐


level</b> elements. It explains their usage
in an <b>HTML</b> document. </p>

BDI TAG
De တဠ nes directional formatting for content. The HTML <bdi>
Element (or Bi-Directional Isolation Element) isolates a span of

dir + global
attributes
Code example

<p dir="ltr">This arabic word


<bdi>ARABIC_PLACEHOLDER</bdi> is
automatically displayed right‐to‐left.</p>

BDO TAG
De တဠ nes directional formatting for content. The HTML <bdo>

override the current directionality of text. It causes the
directionality of the characters to be ignored in favor of the
speci တဠ ed directionality.

Attributes (modi တဠ ers)


dir + global
attributes

Code example

<p><bdo dir="rtl">This text will go right to


left.</bdo></p>

CITE TAG
Title of a referenced piece of work. The HTML Citation
Element (<cite>) represents a reference to a creative work. It
must include the title of a work or a URL reference, which
may be in an abbreviated form according to the
conventions used for the addition of citation metadata.

SPAN TAG
Container with no semantic meaning. The HTML <span>
element is a generic inline container for phrasing content,
which does not inherently represent anything. It can be
used to group elements for styling purposes (using the

values, such as lang. It should be used only when no
other semantic element is appropriate. <span> is very
much like a
<div> element, but <div> is a block-level element whereas a
<span> is an inline element.

TBODҮ TAG
Contains rows that hold the table's data. The HTML Table
Body Element (<tbody>) de တဠ nes one or more <tr> element
data-rows to be the body of its parent <table> element (as
long as no <tr> elements are immediate children of that
table element.) In conjunction with a preceding <thead>
and/or <tfoot> element, <tbody> provides additional
semantic information for devices such as printers and
displays. Of the parent table's child elements, <tbody>
represents the content which, when longer than a page, will
most likely di†‐er for each page printed; while the content of
<thead> and <tfoot> will be the same or similar for each
page printed. For displays, <tbody> will enable separate
scrolling of the <thead>, <tfoot>, and <caption> elements
of the same parent <table> element. Note that unlike the
<thead>, <tfoot>, and <caption> elements however, multiple
<tbody> elements are permitted (if consecutive), allowing
the data-rows in long tables to be divided into di†‐erent
sections, each separately formatted as needed.
