<address> Tag Syntax

Rules for coding HTML address elements
<body>
   ...
   ... flow content expected ...
   <address>
      ... flow content ...
   </address>
   ...
</body>
  1. Inside an element where flow content is allowed, code one or more optional address elements.
  2. Begin each address element with a starting <address> tag. The element name uses lower case letters and should be in the HTML namespace, which it will pick up automatically from the xmlns attribute on the <html> tag.
  3. Include any HTML global attributes on the <address> tag as appropriate.
  4. End the address element with a matching </address> closing tag.
  5. Inside the address element, include any allowable flow content as appropriate.

<address> Content Model

The content of the address element can include HTML comments, text content and any tags that can be used in flow content except for <header> tags, <hgroup> tags, <hn> heading tags, <footer> tags, <article> tags, <aside> tags, <nav> tags, <section> tags or other <address> tags, which are not permitted anywhere under the address element.
