(Continued from previous topic...)
What Is a "blockquote" Tag/Element?
A blockquote element is a block level element that can be used directly as
a sub-element in the body element. You can use blockquote elements to specify
a block of paragraphs to be displayed in a quotation format.
Here are basic rules about blockquote elements:
- "blockquote" elements can only have block elements as contents.
- "blockquote" elements can have empty contents.
- "blockquote" elements can not have PCDATA as contents.
- "blockquote" elements can not have in-line elements contents.
- "blockquote" elements are block elements. They can not be used as in-line elements.
- "blockquote" elements are displayed with extra left margin and right margin.
Here is a good example of blockquote elements:
<body>
<blockquote><p>
"You may never know what results come of your action,
but if you do nothing there will be no result."
</p></blockquote>
</body>
