- <h1>Heading elements</h1>
-
- <p>HTML provides 6 levels of headings: <a
- href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/global.html#edef-H1"><code>H1,
- H2, H3, H4, H5, and H6</code></a>. These should be used to mark headings
- according to their relative importance, with <code>h1</code> being the most
- important. Headings are block elements, and can only be created as children
- of elements that have block-type content. Note that for tables of data there
- are special elements to mark headings.</p>
-
- <p>The first three levels of heading can be created from the toolbar using
- the heading images <img src="../../images/H1.gif" alt="H1 button" />, <img
- src="../../images/H2.gif" alt="H2 button" />, <img src="../../images/H3.gif"
- alt="H3 button" />. All levels of heading can be created from the
- <strong>XHTML</strong> menu, or using keyboard shortcuts. The default
- keyboard shortcuts are <kbd>Ctrl 1</kbd> for <code>H1</code>, <kbd>Ctrl
- 2</kbd> for <code>h2</code>, and so on to <kbd>Ctrl 6</kbd> for
- <code>h6</code>.</p>
-
- <p>There are default styles for headings in most browsers to give some idea
- of their relative importance, but the author can also use <a
- href="../StyleSheets.html">style sheets</a> to provide a suggested
- presentation.</p>
