Generally, coding can be copied and pasted, without writing new code. There is a short list of markup and tips at Help:Cheatsheet. In addition to wikitext, some HTML elements are also allowed for presentation formatting. See Help:HTML in wikitext for information on this.
(The "source code", "wiki text", or "input text" is what editors see and change in the text box of the "edit this page" form; the displayed text is what is shown to the reader.) One benefit is that the line breaks make diffs smaller and (arguably) easier to read, and this was especially true before the changes to the styling of diffs made in 2012 .
This code generates "page C‑2" just like the plain code "page C-2", but prevents a line break at the hyphen. However, like , the use of ‑ instead of "-" renders the source text harder to read and edit. Don't use it unless it is really necessary to avoid a line break.
Some tags that resemble HTML are actually MediaWiki parser and extension tags, and so are actually wiki markup. HTML included in pages can be validated for HTML5 compliance by using validation. Note that some elements and attributes supported by MediaWiki and browsers have been deprecated by HTML5 and should no longer be used.
Ensure that the document's MIME type is set to text/html. For both HTML and XHTML, this comes from the HTTP Content-Type header sent by the server. Change the XML empty-element syntax to an HTML style empty element (< br /> to < br >). Those are the main changes necessary to translate a document from XHTML 1.0 to HTML 4.01.
Typography is the art and technique of setting written subject matter in type using a combination of typeface styles, point sizes, line lengths, line leading, character spacing, and word spacing to produce typeset artwork in physical or digital form. The same block of text set with line-height 1.5 is easier to read: Typography is the art and technique of setting written subject matter in type ...
For example, a "table" element could be defined in a new namespace with new semantics different from the HTML "table" element and the browser will be able to differentiate between the two. In providing namespaces, XHTML combined with CSS allow authoring communities to easily extend the semantic vocabulary of documents.
The web browser parses the HTML and interprets the markup (< title >, < p > for paragraph, and such) that surrounds the words to format the text on the screen. Many web pages use HTML to reference the URLs of other resources such as images, other embedded media, scripts that affect page behaviour, and Cascading Style Sheets that
