HTML <address> tag

HTML <address> tag is used to specify the authorship information of the article or webpage. It can contain any type of information which is needed such as, URL, physical address, phone number, email, other links, etc.

The <address> tag is useful for various contexts such as business contact information in the header of the page, or author related contact information, etc.

The contact information written between <address> tags mostly renders in the italic form on the browser.

Note: To represent a random address use <p> tag instead of <address> tag, as it should contain the main contact information.
