HTML Block Level Tags

HTML

Block element always occupies the whole horizontal space of its parent element.

HTML Block level Tags


Block elements stack vertically and take up as much horizontal space as possible.

Block elements force the text to start with a new line.

One Block level element can be placed in a row by default, but using css we can put multiple block elements in a single line.

Block-level elements may contain other block-level elements or inline elements.

Global attributes

Global attributes may be applied on all elements, although some elements may have no effect on them.

<accesskey>, <class>, <contenteditable>, <contextmenu>, <data-*>, <dir>, <draggable>, <dropzone>, <hidden>, <id>, <lang>, <spellcheck>, <style>, <tabindex>, <title>, <translate>.
