<SPAN>...</SPAN>

Description: The <SPAN> tag is a way to apply a style to a portion of text
that is not contained within a specific HTML structural tag. It can be used
to apply a style to the first letter or word of a document and is contained
within the header of the document. It won't affect the text, only the style
will affect the text's appearance.

Attributes:

  • charset - This attribute indicates the character encoding of the destination resource of the HREF attribute.
  • href - This attribute indicates the URL to be loaded when the linked content is activated.
  • hreflang - This attribute specifies the base language of the resource indicated in the HREF attribute.
  • media - This attribute is a keyword representing the intended rendering destination for the style sheet properties applied to this element. Multiple destinations are given delimited by commas.
  • rel - The REL attribute is meant to give the relationship(s) described between the current document and the document specified by the HREF attribute.
  • rev - The REL attribute is basically meant to be the same as the REL attribute, but the semantics of the relationship are in the reverse direction. A link from A to B with REL="X" expresses the same relationship as a link from B to A with REV="X". Both the REL and REV attributes may be used in the same element.
  • target - This attribute specifies the named frame for the contents specified by the HREF attribute to load to when activated.
  • type - This attribute specifies the MIME type of the resource indicated in the HREF attribute.

Usage:

This is a span of the style <SPAN STYLE="font-size: xx-small">font-size: xx-small</SPAN>

Will look like this:

This is a span of the style font-size: xx-small
