What Is an HTML Span Tag?
Span tags are hypertext markup language (HTML) inline tags that are used to combine inline elements in a document. There is no fixed format for span. When you apply a style to it, it makes a visual change.
span tags
- <span> defines a region within a line, that is, a line can be divided into several areas by a <span> to achieve a certain effect. <span> itself has no attributes.
- <span> and <dl>
- <span> belongs to an inline element in the CSS definition, and <dl> is a block-level element. We may generally understand that <dl> is a large container. Of course, a large container can put a small container. .
- example:
<html>
<body>
<script>
function setspan (id)
{if (id == 1) {a.innerText = "Set text"};
if (id == 2) {a.innerHTML = "<font color = red size = 7> Setting code </ font>"};}
</ script>
<span id = a> </ span>
<a href=javascript:setspan(1)> Set span text </a> </br>
<a href=javascript:setspan(2)> Set the code for the span </a> </br>
</ body>
</ html>
- <span> tag support
- The <span> tag supports HTML event attributes.
- What is the difference between DIV tags and SPAN tags?
- Solutions:
- The biggest feature of DIV and SPAN elements is that by default, no formatted rendering is performed on the objects inside the element. Mainly used to apply style sheets. The most obvious difference is that DIV is a block element, while SPAN is an inline element (also translated as an inline element).
- Specific steps:
- 1. The so-called block element is an element that starts rendering on a new line, and the inline elements do not need to start on a new line. Test the following code to understand it more visually:
- Test <span> Displayed immediately following "test" </ span> <dl> A new line will appear here </ dl>
- 2. Block elements and inline elements are not static, and can be converted to each other by defining the display property value of CSS, such as:
- Test <dl style = "display: inline"> The "test" display immediately following it </ dl> <span style = "display: block"> This will display a new line here </ span>
- Tip: If you do not define any CSS attributes for the DIV element, the display effect is equivalent to the P element.
