HTML/tags_htm

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

<h1>HTML level 2.0 markup</h1>

<h2>Headings</h2>
<p>
Headings are delimited by tag pairs of the form
<var>&lt;h*&gt;&lt;/h*&gt;</var>, where * is replaced by the heading level,
from 1 to 6. They should appear in a document in a strict hierarchy, with
<var>&lt;h1&gt;</var> headings at the top level -  usually the title of the
document. Samples appear below:</p>

<h1>Heading 1</h1>
<h2>Heading 2</h2>
<h3>Heading 3</h3>
<h4>Heading 4</h4>
<h5>Heading 5</h5>
<h6>Heading 6</h6>

<hr>
<h2>'Paragraph-type' block elements</h2>
<p>
The most familiar of these is the <var>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</var> paragraph
tag pair. The closing tag on a paragraph may safely be omitted, and often is.
The paragraph's end is then deduced by the browser from the start of the next
block element, such as another paragraph or heading.</p>

<p>
The <var>&lt;address&gt;&lt;/address&gt;</var> tag pair delimits addresses,
as in:</p>

<address>IDG Media, Media House, Adlington Park, Macclesfield</address>
<p>
The <var>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;</var> element delimits an
extended quotation from another source, as in:</p>

<blockquote>The quality of mercy is not strained,<br>
It dropeth as the gentle rain from heaven<br>
Upon the place beneath.</blockquote>
<p>
The <var>&lt;pre&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;</var> tag delimits a block of text which is
to be rendered in a fixed-width font with spacing and line breaks intact.
This is very useful for creating tables for browsers that don't understand
the <var>&lt;table&gt;</var> tag (as most Acorn browsers don't).</p>

<pre>

<h2>Lists</h2>
<p>
Lists have two parts: a delimiting tag pair indicating the type of list, and
a set of single tags indicating each list element. There are three main
types of lists, ordered, unordered and definitions.</p>

<h3>Ordered lists</h3>
<p>
Ordered lists are delimited by the <var>&lt;ol&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</var> tag pair.
The individual elements of an unordered list are marked by
<var>&lt;li&gt;</var> tags. An example of an unordered list appears below,
first with the HTML source:</p>

<p>
<code>
&lt;ol&gt;<br>
  &lt;li&gt; Insert the disc on the floppy drive.<br>
  &lt;li&gt; Click on the floppy drive icon on the Desktop.<br>
  &lt;li&gt; Double-click on the installer icon.<br>
&lt;/ol&gt;<br>
</code>
</p>
<p>
Then how it looks in your browser:</p>
<ol>
  <li> Insert the disc on the floppy drive.
  <li> Click on the floppy drive icon on the Desktop.
  <li> Double-click on the installer icon.
</ol>

<h3>Unordered lists</h3>
<p>
Unordered lists are delimited using the <var>&lt;ul&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</var>
tags. The individual elements are (as in the case of ordered lists) marked by
<var>&lt;li&gt;</var> tags. An example of an unordered list appears below,
first with the HTML source:</p>

<p>
<code>
&lt;ul&gt;<br>
  &lt;li&gt; Faster response to your problems.<br>
  &lt;li&gt; A 24-hour support hotline.<br>
  &lt;li&gt; Full money-back guarantee.<br>
  &lt;li&gt; Interest-free credit until May.<br>
&lt;/ul&gt;
</code>
</p>
<p>
This is how it looks in your browser:</p>
<ul>
  <li> Faster response to your problems.
  <li> A 24-hour support hotline.
  <li> Full money-back guarantee.
  <li> Interest-free credit until May.
</ul>

<h3>Definitions</h3>
<p>
Lists of definitions are marked by the <var>&lt;dl&gt;&lt;/dl&gt;</var> tag
pair. Each element in the list has two parts: a term and the term's
definition. Terms are marked with the <var>&lt;dt&gt;</var> tag and
definitions with the <var>&lt;dd&gt;</var> tag. An example of a definition
list appears below, first with the HTML source: </p>

<p>
<code>
&lt;dl&gt;<br>
  &lt;dt&gt; ARM<br>
  &lt;dd&gt; Originally, this stood for 'Acorn RISC Machine', but it now
    stands for 'Advanced RISC Machine'. There is an ARM chip at the heart
    of every Acorn RISC OS computer.<br>
  &lt;dt&gt; RISC<br>
  &lt;dd&gt; Reduced Instruction Set Chip. Well, you did ask.<br>
&lt;/dl&gt;
</code>
</p>
<p>
This is how it looks in your browser:</p>
<dl>
  <dt> ARM
  <dd> Originally, this stood for 'Acorn RISC Machine', but it now
    stands for 'Advanced RISC Machine'. There is an ARM chip at the
    heart of every Acorn RISC OS computer.
  <dt> RISC
  <dd> Reduced Instruction Set Chip. Well, you did ask.
</dl>

<h3>Other lists</h3>
<p>
There are two other list types, which both use <var>&lt;li&gt;</var> for
their elements. They are the menu (a compact, unordered list), delimited by
<var>&lt;menu&gt;&lt;/menu&gt;</var>, and the directory (a list whose
elements have at most 20 characters), delimited by
<var>&lt;dir&gt;&lt;/dir&gt;</var>. They are uncommon in current HTML
usage.</p>

<h3>List attributes</h3>
<p>
All list elements can take the <var>compact</var> attribute, which indicates
that the browser should, if possible, keep the elements of the list close
together. Here is the same list, first without the <var>compact</var>
attribute:</p>
<ul>
  <li>Red
  <li>Orange
  <li>Yellow
  <li>Green
  <li>Blue
  <li>Indigo
  <li>Violet
</ul>
<p>and secondly with it:</p>
<ul compact>
  <li>Red
  <li>Orange
  <li>Yellow
  <li>Green
  <li>Blue
  <li>Indigo
  <li>Violet
</ul>
<p>
Many browsers ignore the <var>compact</var> attribute, so the above lists
may look identical.</p>

<hr>

<h2>Separators</h2>
<p>
The <var>&lt;br&gt;</var> element inserts a line break in a block of text.
This is particularly useful in addresses. Usually, browsers don't leave as
as much space for a <var>&lt;br&gt;</var> element as they do between
paragraphs, but you shouldn't rely on this.</p>
<p>
The <var>&lt;hr&gt;</var> element inserts a horizontal rule. It's used in
this document to break up the separate sections.</p>

<h2>Character formatting</h2>
<p>
These are a set of HTML tag pairs which may be used to format text. They are
usually applied to words or phrases, as opposed to larger blocks of text.</p>
<p>
The following tags are known as 'semantic' tags, because they tell the
browser the semantic intent of the words - what 'extra meaning' they carry.
</p>
<dl>
  <dt>The citation tag (<var>&lt;cite&gt;&lt;/cite&gt;</var>)
  <dd>Delimits the citation of a book or other work - as in <cite>Acorn
  User</cite> or <cite>One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest</cite>.
  <dt>The code tag (<var>&lt;code&gt;&lt;/code&gt;</var>)
  <dd>Delimits computer language source code - for instance
  <code>10 PRINT "Hello World!"</code>
  <dt>The emphasis tag (<var>&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</var>)
  <dd>Delimits emphasised text - for instance, this point is <em>very</em>
  important.
  <dt>The keyboard tag (<var>&lt;kbd&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;</var>)
  <dd>Delimits text to be entered from the keyboard - for instance 'The
  user then types <kbd>yes</kbd> or <kbd>no</kbd>'.
  <dt>The text sample tag (<var>&lt;samp&gt;&lt;/samp&gt;</var>)
  <dd>Delimits text to be rendered 'as is' - for example
  <samp>;-)</samp> or <samp>&amp;amp;</samp>.
  <dt>The strong emphasis tag (<var>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;</var>)
  <dd>Delimits strongly emphasised text - for instance, this point is
  <strong>very, very</strong> important.
  <dt>The variable name (<var>&lt;var&gt;&lt;/var&gt;</var>)
  <dd>Delimits a variable name - for instance, it's used throughout this
  document for the HTML tags.
</dl>
<p>
The following tags are known as 'physical' tags, becuase they define how the
text will actually look (assuming that the browser can display it):</p>
<dl>
  <dt>The bold tag (&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;)
  <dd>Delimits bold text - like <b>this</b>.
  <dt>The italic tag (&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;)
  <dd>Delimits italic text - like <i>this</i>.
  <dt>The typewriter font tag (&lt;tt&gt;&lt;/tt&gt;)
  <dd>Delimits text displayed in a monospaced font - like <tt>this</tt>.
</dl>
