The element entries that follow generally include the following information:

  • Brief summary       Brief summary of the element's purpose

  • Standard syntax       HTML 4.01 or XHTML 1.0 syntax for the element, including attributes and event handlers defined by the W3C specification

  • Attributes defined by browser       Additional syntax defined by different browsers

  • Standard events       Descriptions of event handler attributes for the element

  • Events defined by browser       Additional event attributes introduced primarily by Internet Explorer

  • Examples       Examples using the element

  • Compatibility       The element's general compatibility with HTML and XHTML specifications and browser versions

  • Notes       Additional information about the element

All attributes not defined in a particular listing are common attributes that can be found at the start of the appendix.

Note  

Listings of attributes and events defined by browser versions assume that these attributes and events generally remain associated with later versions of that browser. For example, attributes defined by Internet Explorer 4 are valid for Internet Explorer 5 and higher, and attributes defined for Netscape 4 remain valid for Netscape 4.5 and higher, up to Netscape 4.8x. Compatibility pre-Opera 4 is not specified.
