Figure 1-21
Block quote in the Web page
quoted paragraphs
are indented in
the page
Note that the customer quote also included three paragraph elements nested within
the
blockquote
element. The indentation applied by the browser to the block quote was
also applied to any content within that element, so those paragraphs were indented even
though browsers do not indent paragraphs by default.
Marking an Address
Dave wants to display the company's address at the bottom of the body of his page.
Contact information such as addresses can be marked using the
address
element, which
uses the syntax
<address>
content
</address>
where
content
is the contact information. Most browsers render addresses in italic.
You'll use the
address
element to display the address of the J-Prop Shop.
