Ins Tag in HTML5

Introduction

The <ins> tag defines the text that has been inserted into a document. The <ins> tag is supported in all major browsers. Markup of inserted text can be useful in determining differences between multiple versions of the same document. Browsers will normally underline inserted text and strike a line through the deleted text.

Syntax

<ins cite=" Changelog-URL" DateTime="YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss+zz:00"> </ins>

Attributes

HTML tags can contain one or more attributes. Attributes are added to a tag to provide the browser with more information about how the tag should appear or behave. Attributes consist of a name and a value separated by an equals (=) sign, with the value surrounded by double-quotes.

There are 3 kinds of attributes that you can add to your HTML tags: Element-specific, global, and event handler content attributes. The attributes that you can add to this tag are listed below.
