HTML Elements

Text formats

The HTML <strong> and <em> gives us a way of defining text with special meaning. <strong> text is usually rendered as bold text by browsers, while <em> text is cursive. These tags are useful, but should be used with modesty.

Code example

<p>
    <strong>
        I am important and should be taken seriously.
    </strong>


    I love <em>carrots</em>.
    Emphasis on carrots.
</p>

produces the paragraph below

I am important and should be taken seriously.

I love carrots. Emphasis on carrots.
