Enhancing Text and Interactivity in HTML
Text formatting tags
HTML provides several text formatting tags that allow you to add emphasis, underline, or strikethrough text as needed.
The <strong> and <em> tags are used to emphasize text. The <strong> tag renders text in bold, indicating strong importance, while the <em> tag renders text in italics, indicating emphasis.
The <u> tag underlines text to provide visual clarity and highlight important information. However, use underlining sparingly to avoid cluttering the text.
The <s> tag strikes through text, indicating deletion or irrelevance. It is commonly used to show that certain text has been removed or is no longer valid.
Example:
index.html
In the example above:
<strong>and<em>tags provide emphasis to text, with<strong>rendering text in bold and<em>rendering it in italics;- The
<u>tag underlines text, highlighting it visually; - The
<s>tag strikes through text, indicating deletion or irrelevance.
