HTML <s> Tag

This tag is used to specify that the text content is no longer correct or accurate. This tag is similar but slightly different from the <del> tag. The <s> tag should not be used to define deleted text, rather use the <del> tag for that.

• The <s> tag is used to define text that should be presented with a strikethrough effect.
• The <optgroup> tag also supports the Global Attributes and Event Attributes in HTML.
• This tag is depreciated from HTML 4.1, but it is redefined in HTML5 using the CSS text-decoration property instead. It is used to define the text is no longer correct.

<s> Contents... </s>

Default CSS for <s> tag is as:

s {
  text-decoration: line-through;
}
