  33. <h1>Heading elements</h1>
  34.  
  35. <p>HTML provides 6 levels of headings: <a
  36. href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/global.html#edef-H1"><code>H1,
  37. H2, H3, H4, H5, and H6</code></a>. These should be used to mark headings
  38. according to their relative importance, with <code>H1</code> being the most
  39. important. Headings are block elements, and can only be created as children
  40. of elements that have block-type content. Note that for tables of data there
  41. are special elements to mark headings.</p>
  42.  
  43. <p>The first three levels of heading can be created from the toolbar using
  44. the heading images <img src="../../images/H1.gif" alt="H1 button" />, <img
  45. src="../../images/H2.gif" alt="H2 button" />, <img src="../../images/H3.gif"
  46. alt="H3 button" />. All levels of heading can be created from the Types menu,
  47. or using keyboard shortcuts. The default keyboard shortcuts are
  48. <kbd>control-1</kbd> for <code>H1</code>, <kbd>control-2</kbd> for
  49. <code>H2</code>, and so on to <kbd>control-6</kbd> for <code>H6</code>.</p>
  50.  
  51. <p>There are default styles for headings in most browsers to give some idea
  52. of their relative importance, but the author can also use <a
  53. href="../StyleSheets.html">style sheets</a> to provide a suggested
  54. presentation.</p>
