Elements and Attributes
So far we have looked exclusively at HTML Elements.<html>, <head>, <title>, <body>, <p>, <br>, <small>, <pre>, <strong>, <tt>, <b> & <i> etc.
To gain more control over the appearance and functionality of a HTML document Attributes of each element can be used.
In the example on this page the align attribute of the p (paragraph) element was used to control the justification of the text.
Example - Elements and Attributes
|
This new paragraph is aligned to the right! This new paragraph is aligned to the centre! This new paragraph is aligned to the left! |
The HTML
<html> <head> <title>Elements and Attributes</title> </head> <body> <p align="right">This new paragraph is aligned to the right! <p align="center">This new paragraph is aligned to the centre! <p align="left">This new paragraph is aligned to the left! </body> </html> |
Important - the spellings in HTML are American (US). For example it is 'CENTER' not centre.
