HTML Edit Elements — Ins, Del, Datetime, Cite

 <ins> means insertion of text in a webpage, and element <del> means deletion from a webpage.

You want to correct the following line in your webpage, where you wrote Tond instead of Bond, James Bond.

Example

<p> My name is Tond.</p>
Correction in the following way.
<p> My name is <del>Tond</del><ins> Bond, James Bond.</ins></p>

 

Note that <s> element, that is strike-through, exactly displays text like <del> element — only difference is <s> element isn't used for deletion (or say removal) from a webpage.

Attribute <datetime> tells the date and time of insertion (ins) and deletion (del) of content from a webpage.

Machine readable format of <datetime> attribute is: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM-HH:MM. That is Year-Month-DayT(TIME)Hours:Mintues-Hours:Minutes (This last Hours:Minutes is to set Time Zone).

Example

<p> My name is <del>Tond</del><ins datetime="2050-12-31T23:11-5:00"> Bond, James Bond.</ins></p>

 

Attribute <cite> means reference, credit, link, or any other information suitable for <del> and <ins> element.

Example

<p> My name is <del>Tond</del><ins datetime="2050-12-31T23:11-5:00" cite="http://example.com/original.html"> Bond, James Bond.</ins></p>

 

P.S.: We will talk about <time> element later on in HTML Style Elements.
