HTML <article> Tag - HTML Tag

The <article> tag specifies independent, self-contained content.

An article should make sense on its own and it should be possible to distribute it independently from the rest of the site.

Potential sources for the <article> element:

Forum post
Blog post
News story

Note: The <article> element does not render as anything special in a browser. However, you can use CSS to style the <article> element (see example below).
