Contains
body_content
Used in
address_content
The text within the
<address>
tag may contain any element normally
found in the body of a document, excluding another
<address>
tag. Style
changes are allowed, but they may conflict with the style the browser
chose to render the
<address>
element.
We think that most, if not all, documents should have their authors' ad-
dresses included somewhere convenient to the user, usually at the end.
At the very least, the address should be the author or webmaster's email
address, along with a link to their home page. Street addresses and
phone numbers are optional; personal ones usually are not included, for
privacy reasons.
