A funny email message arrived: ” The other day, I was working on a site when I stumbled across a forgotten corner of HTML. The <dl> tag is a “definition list”; it uses alternating <dt> (“definition term”) and <dd> (“definition definition”, it seems) child elements. This sort of markup fits pretty well for, say, dates and news items, so I’ve used it for that.
“My question for you is, what are your favorite obscure tags? I’m not talking about <img> or <br> — I’m talking about the ones everybody’s forgotten about, like the <dl> tag. Other bits of obscurity (like weird CSS selectors) are welcome too, of course. :^)”
