Global attributes are an important part of learning HTML. Nearly every HTML tag uses these attributes, so being familiar with them is a good idea.
Core Attributes
Core attributes are the global attributes that are central to most HTML tags. They are:
- accesskey HTML 5
- class
- contenteditable HTML 5
- contextmenu HTML 5
- draggable HTML 5
- hidden HTML 5
- id
- spellcheck HTML 5
- style
- tabindex HTML 5
- title
Internationalization (il8n) Attributes
These are the attributes that help you make your HTML more language independent. You can use these two attributes on most HTML tags to change or specify the language and direction of the tag's contents:
XML Attributes
These attributes are defined in the XML specification, but are often used in HTML documents.
- xml:lang
- xml:space
- xml:base
