html cite tag syntax
Function:usually indicates that the text it contains refers to a reference, such as the title of a magazine or some books, songs, movies, TV shows, paintings, sculptures, etc.
Instructions:Use the tag to isolate references to other documents, especially those in traditional media, such as books, magazines, journals, etc. If there is an online version of the referenced document, you should also include the reference in an tag to provide a hyperlink to the online version. The tag also has a hidden function: it allows you or others to automatically extract a bibliography from the document. We can easily imagine a browser that automatically organizes tables of citations and displays them as footnotes or separate documents. The semantics of the tag go far beyond changing the appearance of the text it contains; it enables the browser to express the document's content to the user in a variety of practical ways.
Note:Quoted text will appear in italics. All browsers support the tag.
