The Address element specifies such information as address, signature and authorship, often at the top or bottom of a document.
Typically, an Address is rendered in an italic typeface and may be indented. The Address element implies a paragraph break before and after.
For example :
<ADDRESS>
Mr. Cosmic Kumquat<BR>
SSL Trusters Inc.<BR>
1234 Squeamish Ossifrage Road<BR>
Anywhere<BR>
NY 12345<BR>
U.S.A.
</ADDRESS>
Which would render as :
Mr. Cosmic Kumquat
<ADDRESS>
can also accept the following attributes :
TITLE="informational ToolTip"
The Internet Explorer 4.0 (and above) specific TITLE
attribute is used for informational purposes. If present, the value of the TITLE
attribute is presented as a ToolTip when the users mouse hovers over the <ADDRESS>
section.
For example after adding the following attributes to the example above,
<ADDRESS TITLE="A fictitious address">
...
the <ADDRESS>
displayed would change to :
Note that if no TITLE
attribute is set, then no ToolTip is presented to the user.
LANG="language setting"
The LANG
attribute can be used to specify what language the <ADDRESS>
element is using. It accepts any valid ISO standard language abbreviation (for example "en"
for English, "de"
for German etc.) For more details, see the Document Localisation section for more details.
LANGUAGE="Scripting language"
The LANGUAGE
attribute can be used to expressly specify which scripting language Internet Explorer 4.0 uses to interpret any scripting information used in the <ADDRESS>
element. It can accept values of vbscript
, vbs
, javascript
or jscript
. The first two specify the scripting language as Visual Basic Script, the latter two specify it as using Javascript (the default scripting language used if no LANGUAGE
attribute is set.
CLASS="Style Sheet class name"
The CLASS
attribute is used to specify the <ADDRESS>
as using a particular style sheet class. For example, a style sheet class defined as:
<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
.SmallAddress {font-size : 8pt; font-family : Arial}
</STYLE>
could then be referenced as:
<ADDRESS CLASS="SmallAddress">1, HTMLib Way, Swansea</ADDRESS>
and would be displayed in an 8pt, Arial font. See the Style Sheets overview for more information and style sheet settings.
STYLE="In line style setting"
As well as using previously defined style sheet settings, the <ADDRESS>
element can have in-line stylings attached to it. For example:
<ADDRESS STYLE="{font-family:Arial;font-size:8pt}">1, HTMLib Way, Swansea</ADDRESS>
would display exactly as the above example. See the Style Sheets section for more details about style sheet settings.
ID="Unique element identifier"
The ID
attribute can be used to either reference a unique style sheet identifier, or to provide a unique name for the <ADDRESS>
element for scripting purposes. Any <ADDRESS>
element with an ID
attribute can be directly manipulated in script by referencing its ID
attribute, rather than working through the All collection to determine the element. See the Scripting introduction topic for more information.
Every <ADDRESS>
element in a document is an object that can be manipulated through scripting. Note that scripting of the <ADDRESS>
element/object is only supported by Internet Explorer 4.0 in its Dynamic HTML object model. Netscape does not support direct scripting of the <ADDRESS>
element at all.
