wbr tag in html5 with example
- The HTML
<wbr>
tag is used for specifying a line break opportunity. - The
<wbr>
tag can be used on very long words or other long strings of text with no spaces. Without the<wbr>
tag, these long strings of text could either wrap in strange place (making it difficult to read), or not wrap at all - inadvertently pushing the page layout to the side (again, making it difficult to read and view the document as intended). - The difference between the
<wbr>
tag and the<br>
tag is that the<br>
tag forces a line break. The<wbr>
tag, on the other hand, simply represents a line breakopportunity - the browser should only render a line-break if necessary. - The
<wbr>
tag is an empty tag. In other words, it has no end tag. - The <wbr> tag is supported in all major browsers, except Internet Explorer.
Example 1 :
<html>
<head><title>mark tag in html5</title>
</head>
<body>
<b>Below is the text with wbr tag, which tells browser to apply line break</b>
<p>aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa<wbr>aaaa</wbr>aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa</p><br />
<b>Below text does not wrap. This text causes scroll-bar to appear.</b>
<p>aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa</p>
</body>
</html>
