RizwanAhmedMemon Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Hello everyone, I want you to explain some tags such as <span> I don't know this likewise there are so many tags that are rather new and difficult to get the hang of. So please explain some tags here from your side too. Thanks, Rizwan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RizwanAhmedMemon Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 And what is "mapping"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Span is a generic inline element. Its purpose is to apply CSS styles to a portion of text. <p>This text has a <span class="special">special</span> word.</p> In the CSS stylesheet: .special { font-size: 1.2em; font-style: italic; font-variant: small-caps;} I can't tell you what "mapping" is unless you show me the context in which the word is used.

alvo Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I assume you mean <map> ? I could attempt to explain, however I think w3schools has already done a better job than I would: "The <map> tag is used to define a client-side image-map. An image-map is an image with clickable areas.The name attribute of the <map> element is required and it is associated with the <img>'s usemap attribute and creates a relationship between the image and the map.The <map> element contains a number of <area> elements, that defines the clickable areas in the image map."
