TITLE="informational ToolTip"
The Internet Explorer 4.0 (and above) specific TITLE
attribute is used for informational purposes. If present, the value of the TITLE
attribute is presented as a ToolTip when the users mouse hovers over the <STRONG>
section.
LANG="language setting"
The LANG
attribute can be used to specify what language the <STRONG>
element is using. It accepts any valid ISO standard language abbreviation (for example "en"
for English, "de"
for German etc.) For more details, see the Document Localisation section for more details.
LANGUAGE="Scripting language"
The LANGUAGE
attribute can be used to expressly specify which scripting language Internet Explorer 4.0 uses to interpret any scripting information used in the <STRONG>
element. It can accept values of vbscript
, vbs
, javascript
or jscript
. The first two specify the scripting language as Visual Basic Script, the latter two specify it as using Javascript (the default scripting language used if no LANGUAGE
attribute is set.
CLASS="Style Sheet class name"
The CLASS
attribute is used to specify the <STRONG>
element as using a particular style sheet class. See the Style Sheets topic for details.
STYLE="In line style setting"
As well as using previously defined style sheet settings, the <STRONG>
element can have in-line stylings attached to it. See the Style Sheets topic for details.
ID="Unique element identifier"
The ID
attribute can be used to either reference a unique style sheet identifier, or to provide a unique name for the <STRONG>
element for scripting purposes. Any <STRONG>
element with an ID
attribute can be directly manipulated in script by referencing its ID
attribute, rather than working through the All collection to determine the element. See the Scripting introduction topic for more information.
Every <STRONG>
element in a document is an object that can be manipulated through scripting. Note that scripting of the <STRONG>
element/object is only supported by Internet Explorer 4.0 in its Dynamic HTML object model. Netscape does not support direct scripting of the <STRONG>
element at all.
