Expand description

The <header> element - introductory content.

§Purpose

The <header> element represents introductory content or navigational aids. It typically contains heading elements, logos, search forms, author information, or navigation. A page can have multiple <header> elements (e.g., page header and article headers).

§Content Categories

  • Flow Content
  • Palpable Content

§Permitted Content Model

  • Flow content (but not <header>, <footer>, or <main> descendants)

§Common Use Cases

  • Site-wide page header with logo and navigation
  • Article or section headers with title and metadata
  • Introduction to a piece of content
  • Masthead for a page or section

§Key Attributes

  • Global attributes only

§Example

<header>
  <img src="logo.png" alt="Company Logo">
  <h1>My Website</h1>
  <nav>
    <a href="/">Home</a>
    <a href="/about">About</a>
  </nav>
</header>

<article>
  <header>
    <h2>Article Title</h2>
    <p>By John Doe, <time datetime="2024-01-15">Jan 15, 2024</time></p>
  </header>
  <p>Article content...</p>
</article>

§Accessibility
