Html address tag

The HTML <address> tag is used for indicating an address, usually related to authorship of the current document, or a section of the document.

If the tag applies to the body element, then it applies to the document as a whole.

The <address> tag must not be used to represent arbitrary addresses (e.g. postal addresses), unless those addresses are contact information for the section. To display postal addresses, simply use the <p> tag.

The <address> tag cannot contain <article><aside><nav><section><header><footer><hgroup><h1>-<h6> or other <address> elements.

Attributes

HTML tags can contain one or more attributes. Attributes are added to a tag to provide the browser with more information about how the tag should appear or behave. Attributes consist of a name and a value separated by an equals (=) sign, with the value surrounded by double quotes. Here's an example, style="color:black;".

There are 3 kinds of attributes that you can add to your HTML tags: Element-specific, global, and event handler content attributes.

The attributes that you can add to this tag are listed below.

Global Attributes

The following attributes are standard across all HTML 5 tags.

  • accesskey
  • class
