HTML <ins> Tag

HTML <ins> tag is used to specify a block of inserted text. The <ins> tag is typically used to mark a range of text that has been added to the document. The inserted text is rendered as underlined text by the web browsers although this property can be changed using the CSS text-decoration property. The <ins> tag requires a starting and ending tag.

Syntax:

<ins> Contents... </ins>

Attributes: 

  • cite: It is used to specify the URL of the document or message which denotes the reason for inserting the text.
  • datetime: It is used to specify the date and time of the inserted text. The datetime is inserted in the format YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD.
