The H1-H6 Heading Elements

The <H1>-<H6> Heading Elements

The heading elements <H1> to <H6> are block HTML elements, which means they're set off on their own line by browsers. These elements enable you to display headings of various sizes, with <H1> being the largest and <H6> being the smallest. These elements support an align property (although note that the ALIGN HTML attribute is actually deprecated in HTML 4.01 in favor of style sheets), as you see in Table 11.5.

Table 11.5. The Properties of the <H1>-<H6> Elements (See Chapters 5 and 6 for the JavaScript core HTML properties, methods , and events that also apply to these elements.)
