Notes
• Under the XHTML 1.0 specification, the
head
element no longer can be implied, but
rather must be used in all documents and must have a close tag. Under standard,
older HTML specifications as well as HTML5, the element is actually optional.
• Often, a
<meta>
tag specifying the character set in play should be found as the first
child of the
head
element, particularly if the document's
title
element contains
special characters.
• The meaning of the
profile
attribute is somewhat unclear, and no browsers appear
to support it in any meaningful way.
• HTML 2 and 3.2 support no attributes for this element.
<header> (Header)
This HTML5 element represents the header section of a document or a section element it is
contained within. Like a typical document header in print, it should contain title and
heading information about the related content.
