To strike through text, apply the s or the strike element. Here are examples:
<h3><u>Vehicle Purchase</u></h3>
<p>The following study was made to compare three <s>cars</s> vehicles:
the <u>Honda CR-V</u>, the <u>Chevrolet Equinox</u>, and the <u>Volkswagen
Tiguan</u>, all <strike>2013</strike> 2015 made.</p>
This would produce:
To display text higher on a line than the other characters of the same line, apply the sup element. Here is an example:
<p>In geometry, if two sides of a right triangle are known, the other side can
be evaluated using the following Pythagorean equation:</p>
<pre>a<sup>2</sup> + b<sup>2</sup> = c<sup>2</sup></pre>
To display text lower on a line compared to the alignment of the other characters on the same line, apply the sub element. Here is an example:
<p>Nitrogen dioxide can be produced as follows:</p>
<pre>2NO<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> -> 2HNO<sub>3</sub></pre>
a special character is one for which the browser needs a particular
instruction to rightly display. Some of those characters may conflict with HTML code. For
example, if you include the & character in your text, the browser would first think
that the character is part of code. In some other cases, a character you want to use is
not part of the English language, so it may not display appropriately.
HTML support a huge set of special characters managed by
W3. To insert a special
character in your page, if you already know its code, just type it. Otherwise, get the HTML
code of that character and type it where desired.
The code of a special character starts wit &. Some
symbols are represented with a number, some symbols are represented with
letters, and some symbols are represented by either numbers or letters. The code
of an HTML symbol ends with a semicolon.
At this time, you might have realized that HTML uses a few
symbols to delimit its tags. These include <, &, /, or >, etc. Some of those
characters must be displayed in webpages when drealing with their topics. For
example, the < and the > symbols are used in science (such as mathematics) and
computer programming to perform comparisons. In the same way, the & symbol is
used by many programming languages. To display symbols used in HTML, you should
provide special code to the browser. The most common symbols are:
HTML Symbol |
Name |
Code |
< |
Less Than |
< |
> |
Greater Than |
> |
& |
Ampersand |
& |
Classic Special Characters
|
|
Probably when you hear about special characters in a
webpage, some symbols automatically come to your mnd. They are:
HTML Symbol |
Name |
Code |
' |
Single-Quote |

Double-Quote |

Just to name a few.
HTML also supports characters from various languages,
both latin-based and non-latin based.

Citing consists of giving credit to the author of a piece of work. To assist
you with this, HTML provides an element named cite. You can create it inside a paragraph
or any section. Here are example:
<html>
<head>
<title>Database Management: Security</title>
</head>
<body>
<h4>Database Management: Security</h4>
<p>One of the techniques to secure a database <cite>object</cite> is through
a trigger, which is an action performed when an event occurs on a database
or on a table (or view).</p>
</body>
</html>
This would produce:
Another technique to quote someone's work is with the q element.
Quoting text is a technique to indicate someone else's words. To create
such as a quote, nest an element named samp in a paragraph. Here is an example:
<html>
<head>
<title>Database Management: Security</title>
</head>
<body>
<h4>Database Management: Security</h4>
<p>One of the techniques to secure a database <cite>object</cite> is through
a <samp>trigger</samp>, which is an action performed when an event occurs on a
database or on a table (or view).</p>
</body>
</html>
This would produce:
In your HTML code, you may want to indicate that a certain character, a word,
or a section needs the assistance of the visitor's keyboard. To provide this information, create an element
named kbd. Here is an example:
<html>
<head>
<title>Database Management: Security</title>
</head>
<body>
<h4>Database Management: Security</h4>
<p>One of the techniques to secure a database <cite>object</cite> is through
a <samp>trigger</samp>, which is an <kbd>action</kbd> performed when an event
occurs on a database or on a table (or view).</p>
</body>
</html>
Simply creating this element doesn't mean that your webpage will behave in
any significant way. It will only display display the character, word, or section is a way
different from the other characters of the same parent element.
This would produce:
A term definition is text that is attached to a paragraph. That term is typically
created in the paragraph element. To get a term definition, nest an element named dfn to a
paragraph. Here is an example:
<html>
<head>
<title>Database Management: Security</title>
</head>
<body>
<h4>Database Management: Security</h4>
<p>One of the techniques to secure a database <cite>object</cite> is through
a <samp>trigger</samp>, which is an <kbd>action</kbd> performed when an event
occurs on a database or on a table (or <dfn>view</dfn>).</p>
</body>
</html>
This would produce:
When different people work on the same document, they may want to indicate when there is
new addition to a document. To indicate that new text has been added, you can include it in an element named
ins.
If the inserted text is long, such as many lines or a whole paragraph, you can nest a
section or a p element in an ins element.
To indicate text that has been deleted, create it in an element named del
