It’s <dfn>. Jen Kramer is doing a #30DaysofHTML email list thing-y on Substack, which is an easy subscribe. It’s only been a few days and all of them have little gems, even for someone like me who likes to think he has a pretty decent grasp on HTML. Day 4 is <dfn>.
I’m sure I could have told you that <dfn> was “definition” but I certainly don’t reach for it as often as I probably should and couldn’t give you a straight answer on the perfect time to use it.
I think Jen nails that here:
<p>He is not as enamored with <dfn id="kong">King Kong</dfn>
who resembles an enormous gorilla-like ape that has appeared
in various media since 1933. </p>
...
<p>Complaints about <a href="#kong">Kong</a> include how he
has no atomic fire breath.</p> I really like the idea of defining a term naturally and contextually within a block of text, and pointing back up to it with an anchor link later if needed.
