Attributes
Some elements can take attributes - these are extra parameters that
specify propertes of the element. For example, a heading can
take an ALIGN attribute to specify heading alignment. For example,
here is a heading with left, center and right alignments.
<H2 ALIGN="left" >This is the heading </H2>
|
This is the heading
|
<H2 ALIGN="center" >This is the heading </H2>
|
This is the heading
|
<H2 AligN="right" >This is the heading </H2>
|
This is the heading
|
Attribute Values can be Case-Sensitive
Attribute names, like element names, are case insensitive. However, attribute values are
often case sensitive. For example, to indicate a filename, you need to keep upper and lower
case distinct, as many computers (Macintosh, Unix, Win95) distinguish between filenames
like "File1.html", "FILE1.html", "file1.html" and "FiLe1.html". So -- make sure you
type thinkgs with the correct case, and also make sure you surround such strings
with double quotes.
