a, abbr, acronym, applet, b, basefont, bdo, small, br, button, cite, code, dfn, em, font, i, iframe, img, input, kbd, label, map, object, q, s, samp, script, select, small, span, strike, strong, sub, sup, textarea, tt, u, var
<small> Valid Context:
The <small></small> tag is valid within the following tags:
a, abbr, acronym, address, applet, b, bdo, small, blockquote, body, button, caption, center, cite, code, dd, del, dfn, div, dt, em, fieldset, font, form, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, i, iframe, ins, kbd, label, legend, li, noframes, noscript, object, p, q, s, samp, small, span, strike, strong, sub, sup, td, th, tt, u, var
<small> Usage:
- the <small></small> tag
<small>This text is smaller</small> than this text. - nested <small> tags make each nesting a little smallger:
<small><small>This text is the smallest</small> but this text is smaller</small> than this text.
<small> Special Notes:
- It is recommended that you avoid this tag in favor of style sheets.
- Nested <small></small> tags are fine, but style sheets are easier to use and understand. Plus, not all browsers support mulitple levels of the small tag.
- If you insert a <small></small> tag over text that is already font size 1, it will not get any smaller.
