Unique ID Attributes

In HTML, specific and unique id attributes can be <h1 id="A1">Hello World</h1>


assigned to different elements in order to differentiate
between them.
When needed, the id value can be called upon by CSS
and JavaScript to manipulate, format, and perform
specific instructions on that element and that element
only. Valid id attributes should begin with a letter and
should only contain letters ( a-Z ), digits ( 0-9 ),
hyphens ( - ), underscores ( _ ), and periods ( . ).

HTML Attributes

HTML attributes are values added to the opening tag of <p id="my-paragraph" style="color:
an element to configure the element or change the
green;">Here’s some text for a paragraph
element’s default behavior. In the provided example, we
are giving the <p> (paragraph) element a unique that is being altered by HTML
identifier using the id attribute and changing the color attributes</p>
of the default text using the style attribute.

list of items in no particular order. Each individual list
item will have a bullet point by default.

alt Attribute

An <img> element can have alternative text via the <img src="path/to/image" alt="text
alt attribute. The alternative text will be displayed if an
describing image" />
image fails to render due to an incorrect URL, if the
image format is not supported by the browser, if the
image is blocked from being displayed, or if the image
has not been received from the URL.
The text will be read aloud if screen reading software is
used and helps support visually impaired users by
providing a text descriptor for the image content on a
webpage.

<body> Body Element

The <body> element represents the content of an <body>


HTML document. Content inside <body> tags are

rendered on the web browsers.

document. </body>

<span> Span Element

The <span> element is an inline container for text <p><span>This text</span> may be styled
and can be used to group text for styling purposes.
differently than the surrounding text.
However, as <span> is a generic container to
separate pieces of text from a larger body of text, its </p>
use should be avoided if a more semantic element is
available.

<strong> Strong Element

The <strong> element highlights important, serious, <p>This is <strong>important</strong>


or urgent text and browsers will normally render this
text!</p>
highlighted text in bold by default.
