<STRONG></STRONG>

Display text as stronger than normal

Element used to indicate that the text should be strongly emphasized, which the browsers usually do with bold fonts.

        <html>
        <head>
        <title>Some Title</title>
        </head>
        <body>
            .
            .
==>>    <STRONG>IMPORTANT</STRONG>
            .
            .
        </body>
        </html>

This element is the logical cousin to the B element. But it gives the browser the choice in how to display "strong" text.

HTML 3.0 Draft

Adds the language elements.

Attributes common to almost all of the tags permitted in the document body include ID, LANG and CLASS. You probably won't be using any of these tags for a while but I've included them so you know they are coming.

ID: A name to be used as a target for links or for naming particular elements in a style sheet. These take the place of the HTML 2.0 <A NAME="somename">Some Name</A> construct that defines internal document links.
LANG: An ISO standard language abbreviation that defines language specific elements to be used.
CLASS: Used to assign a class name to a tag.
An example of these attributes in use is:: <STRONG ID="topicone" LANG="en-US" CLASS=section>STOP</STRONG>

Netscape

Nothing special.

Microsoft IE

Nothing special.

Internationalization

Nothing special.
