Browser Support

All major browsers support the <address> tag.


Tag Definition and Usage

The <address> tag defines the contact information for the author/owner of a document.

If the <address> element is inside the <body> element, it represents the contact information for the document's author/owner.

If the <address> element is inside the <article> element, it represents the contact information for the article's author/owner.

The text in the <address> element is typically rendered in italic. Most browsers will add a line break before and after the element.


Tips and Notes

Tip: The <address> tag should not be used for postal addresses, unless that information is part of the contact information.

Tip: The <address> element is usually included within other information in the <footer> element.


Differences Between HTML 4.01 and HTML5

HTML 4.01 does not support the <article> tag, so in HTML 4.01, the <address> tag always defines the contact information for the document's author/owner.


Global Attributes

The <address> tag supports HTML's global attributes.


Event Attributes

The <address> tag supports HTML's event attributes.
