Quotations

Quotations

blockquote, q and cite are used for quotations. blockquote is block-line and used for large citations, whereas q is in-line and used for smaller phrases. cite is also in-line and preferable to q for its semantic nature and possible future deprecation of q.

Again, the title attribute can be used to show where the citation has come from.



Note: q does not usually change the appearance of the enclosed text - you need to use CSS if you want to apply a style.

For example:

<p>So I asked Bob about quotations and he said <cite>I know as much about quotations as I do about pigeon fancying</cite>. Luckily, I found design my webpage  and it said...</p>

<blockquote title="From http://designmywebpage.blogspot.com">

Type Juggling and Type Casting

By
Type Juggling: PHP does not require (or support) explicit type definition in variable declaration; a variable's type is determined by the context in which the variable is used. That is to say, if a string value is assigned to variable $var, $var becomes a string. If an integer value is then assigned to $var, it becomes an integer.
