HEAD

Description

An unordered collection of information that marks the document heading.

Syntax

<HEAD
CLASS=classname
ID=value
TITLE=text
>

Parameter Description

CLASS=classname Specifies the class of the tag being defined. This is used to associate a sub-classed style sheet with the tag.

ID=value An SGML identifier used as the target for hypertext links or for naming particular elements in associated style sheets. Valid ID values must begin with a letter. The underbar character, "_", may be used in the ID name. The ID should be unique throughout the scope of the document. If more than one object with the same identifier exists in a document, a collection of those named items is created that can only be referenced by ordinal position.

TITLE=text Used to provide advisory information. The contents of the title attribute will be displayed in a ToolTip during the onmouseover event.

Remarks

The HEAD provides information that does not effect the rendering of the document, but may be of use to the browser. The HEAD falls before the BODY of the document is specified. The following tags are valid in the HEAD block:

BASE
LINK
TITLE
META
BASEFONT
BGSOUND

The TITLE tag is the only information that is required as part of a HEAD block.

Example
<HEAD>
<TITLE>A Simple Document</TITLE>
</HEAD>
Scripting Object
