Rarely used html codes that everybody should use

Published September 12, 2006 in Programming. 0 Comments

There are a few standard html codes that rarely used in the world wide web
arena. Perhaps they are quite weird and some lack browser support people just
ignore it. They are

<address> , <optgroup> , <acronym> or <abbr> and finally <fieldset> &
<legend>

Sample:

1. Address: add some CSS touch, that’s would be more attractive

Lot 123, My Street,
01000 My City, Country

fakemail@simplybuzz.com

2. Optgroup; for better selection

3. Acronym / Abbr; convenient way to put some help text, previously
I’m using <a href="#" title=... LOL, never thought this tag available!

Eg: SEO

See more nice usage examples, originally from: SeoMoz

The hint is using <label> tag, nice unknown trick!

<style>
label {
width: 200px;
float: left;
}
</style>
<p><label>Fake Field</label><input type="text"></p>
<p><label>Fake Field 123</label><input type="text"></p>

Apply <label> tag and specify the <label> width, and force it
located to the left with float.

See example below:

Fake Field

Fake Field (200px width here)

The actual demo code was:

<p><label style="width:200px;float: left;" >Fake Field</label><input type="text"></p>
