<ins> Tag Examples
Examples of the ins
tag in HTML 5
<p>... <ins datetime="2010-10-31">added to paragraph on Halloween 2010</ins> ...</p> <ins datetime="2010-11-30T23:59-05:00"><p>This entire paragraph was added just before midnight Eastern time on the last day of November. </p></ins> <p>... <ins datetime="2010-10-31">This is just one reason for always using the <p> tag for paragraphs in HTML.</ins> </p> <p><ins datetime="2010-10-31">Another reason is that it</ins> <del>Using the <p> tag</del> is highly recommended by the HTML specifications, which says <a href="http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/edits.html#edits-and-paragraphs"> "authors are strongly encouraged to always mark up all paragraphs with the p element"</a>. </p>
The last example includes a deletion using HTML editing code and also shows that a single <ins> tag cannot be used to mark up part of one paragraph along with another paragraph since that would result in mismatched tags. Two <ins> tags need to be used for that. This rule applies even if the <p> tags for one of the paragraphs were implied rather than coded explicitly.
Inserting List Items in HTML 5
A new list item inserted into an HTML list is indicated by coding the <ins> tag inside the <li> tag:
<ul>
<li>original list item</li>
<ins><li>new list item</li></ins>
<li><ins>new list item</ins></li>
</ul>
