Contact Info

The <address> element defines contact information* for the owner of a document or the author of an article. It should NOT be used to describe a postal address, unless that is part of the contact information. Most browsers display the content of this element in italics, adding a line break before and after it.

*Note: If the <address> element is inside the <body> element, it represents contact information for the document.
           If the <address> element is inside an <article> element, it represents contact information for that article. (We'll learn about the <article> tag later.)
