Useful Tags for practical application

When seeking to implement unique styling in your HTML code, consider these helpful tags to enhance the presentation of your text:
  • The block quote tag is ideal for more extended quotes, while thetag is suitable for shorter quotations, allowing you to incorporate diverse quotes into your webpage effectively.
  • The address tag serves multiple purposes, including displaying addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers. It's a practical way to distinguish points of contact from standard paragraph tags.
  • Use the ins tag to underline text representing inserted content and the delete tag to strike through text indicating deleted content.
  • CSS HLS/Opacity

  • When incorporating color into your website design you can take an alternative approach using hls/hlsa. Hls, or hue, lightness, and saturation, are color properties that are an alternative color method. Where hue is a degree on the color wheel 0-360, saturation is a percent, and lightness is a percent where 0= white and 100=black. These three values are grouped like this: hls(0,0%,78%). However, in hlsa, there is alpha, where a is a value 0 to 1.0 for determining transparency to your color selected by hls. However, you can just use opacity: 0.5; in your CSS code or rgba by adding alpha to the end of rgb.
  • CSS Color Palette

  • When incorporating color into your website design, it's crucial to consider its placement. If the color is intended for the background, utilize the CSS background-color property. Otherwise, for text and other elements, use the color property. Once you've identified the appropriate usage, you can select from three primary color options in CSS:
  • RBG
  • Hex
  • Color Name
