HTML5: How to define a text that has been inserted into a document?
Solution:
HTML Code:
<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Declares the document type and version of HTML -->
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8"><!-- Specifies the character encoding for the document -->
<title>How to define a text that has been inserted into a document</title><!-- Sets the title of the document -->
</head>
<body>
<p>My favorite play is <!-- Starts a paragraph -->
<del>football</del><!-- Represents deleted text, "football" in this case -->
<ins>cricket</ins>! <!-- Represents inserted text, "cricket" in this case -->
</p><!-- Ends the paragraph -->
</body>
</html>
Explanation:
- The HTML document starts with a declaration of its type and version (<!DOCTYPE html>).
- The <html> element encloses the entire HTML document.
- The <head> section contains metadata about the document, including the character encoding (<meta charset="utf-8">) and the title of the document (<title>).
- Inside the <body> section, there's a <p> element, which represents a paragraph of text.
- Within the paragraph, there's <del> element, which indicates deleted text. In this case, "football" is marked as deleted text.
- There's also an <ins> element, which indicates inserted text. In this case, "cricket" is marked as inserted text.
- The text "My favorite play is football cricket!" is displayed in the paragraph, with "football" struck through (deleted) and "cricket" underlined (inserted), indicating the change from "football" to "cricket".
