This is a normal paragraph (p
element).
To add some length to it, let us mention that this page was
primarily written for testing the effect of user style sheets.
You can use it for various other purposes as well, like just checking how
your browser displays various HTML elements by default.
It can also be useful when testing conversions from HTML
format to other formats, since some elements can go wrong then.
This is another paragraph. I think it needs to be added that
the set of elements tested is not exhaustive in any sense. I have selected
those elements for which it can make sense to write user style sheet rules,
in my opionion.

.)This is a block quotation containing a single
paragraph. Well, not quite, since this is not really
quoted text, but I hope you understand the point. After all, this
page does not use HTML markup very normally anyway.
The following contains address information about the author, in an address
element.
This is a paragraph before an unnumbered list (ul
). Note that
the spacing between a paragraph and a list before or after that is hard
to tune in a user style sheet. You can’t guess which paragraphs are
logically related to a list, e.g. as a “list header”.

).
In principle, such a list should consist of terms and associated
definitions.
But many authors use dl
elements for fancy “layout” things. Usually the
effect is not too bad, if you design user style sheet rules for dl
which are suitable
for real definition lists.

This is a text paragraph that contains some
inline links. Generally, inline links (as opposite to e.g. links
lists) are problematic
from the
usability perspective,
but they may have use as
“incidental”, less relevant links. See the document
Links Want To Be Links.
The following table has a caption. The first row and the first column
contain table header cells (th
elements) only; other cells
are data cells (td
elements), with align="right"
attributes:
Country | Total area | Land area |
---|---|---|
Denmark | 43,070 | 42,370 |
Finland | 337,030 | 305,470 |
Iceland | 103,000 | 100,250 |
Norway | 324,220 | 307,860 |
Sweden | 449,964 | 410,928 |
The following table has some sample characters with
annotations. If the browser’s default font does not
contain all of them, they may get displayed using backup fonts.
This may cause stylistic differences, but it should not
prevent the characters from being displayed at all.

In the following, a width setting should cause some hyphenation,
depending on support to various methods of hyphenation.
