HTML tags — searchable reference

A grouped, searchable list of the HTML elements you reach for every day, each with a plain-English description. It is a fast cheat sheet for remembering the right element rather than guessing, and for learning semantic markup.

How it works

The reference holds a curated set of common HTML elements organised into groups by purpose: document (html, head, meta, title), sectioning (header, nav, main, section, article, footer), text (p, a, strong, em, span, headings), forms (form, input, button, label, select), media (img, video, audio, picture), and tables (table, tr, th, td). Typing in the search box filters every group at once, matching against both the tag name and its description, so you can search by what an element does as well as by its name.

Example

Searching list surfaces the list elements and their meanings:

TagMeaning
<ul>Unordered (bulleted) list
<ol>Ordered (numbered) list
<li>A single list item
<dl>Description list (terms + definitions)

Search by tag name or description to find the right element instantly. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
