HTML and CSS Reference
In-Depth Information
Compatibility
No standards support
Internet Explorer 5+
Note
• Native browser support for the
<xml>
tag is limited to Internet Explorer 5 or later,
though given native support for XML in modern browsers, it is possible to simulate
the idea by defining a custom tag and hiding it using CSS
display
or
visibility
properties. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Using_XML_Data_Islands_in_
Mozilla for an example.
<xmp> (Example)
This deprecated but still widely supported element indicates that the enclosed text is an
example. Example text generally is rendered in a monospaced font, and the spaces, tabs,
and returns are preserved, as with the
pre
element.
Syntax (Defined by HTML 2; Deprecated Under HTML 4)
