HTML del Tag

The information on this page is based on HTML version 4.01 (which is the current version of HTML). The next version, HTML 5, is currently being written. Here's a list of HTML 5 tags.

The HTML del tag is used for markup of deleted text.

Markup of deleted text can be useful in determining differences between multiple versions of the same document. Browsers will normally strike a line through deleted text and underline inserted text.

Also see HTML ins tag for markup of inserted text.

<p>I am <del>very</del> <ins>extremely</ins> happy that you visited this page.</p>
