HTML - <strong> tag

The HTML <strong> tag is used for making the text strong that has more importance and the text inside it is typically displayed in the bold.

The <strong> tag only includes the global attributes such as, accesskey, autofocus, hidden and so on.

For example − If we are writing content within a paragraph or any element, but an important term comes up in the content, we can use the <strong> tag to make the important words bold.

Syntax

Following is the syntax of <strong> tag −

<strong>...</strong>

Example

In this following example, let’s demonstrate the <strong> tag, as follows − 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
   <p>This is normal paragraph</p>
   <strong>This is strong paragraph! </strong>
   <p> I am <strong> tutorialspoint </strong>
   </p>
</body>
</html>

When we run the above code, it will generate an output consisting of the text applied with a strong tag displayed on the webpsge.

Example

Considering the following example, we are demonstrating the working of the <strong> tag along with CSS properties

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
   <style>
      strong {
         font-style: italic;
      }
      .tp {
         color: green;
      }
   </style>
</head>
<body>
   <p>This is normal paragraph</p>
   <strong>This is strong paragraph!</strong>
   <p> I am <strong class="tp"> tutorialspoint </strong>
   </p>
</body>
</html>

On running the above code, the output window will pop up dispalying the text used with a strong tag along with a CSS applied to it on the webpage.
