| 43 | <p>The <strong class=html>INS</strong> element contains content that has been <em>inserted</em>. This element is useful in marking changes from one version of a document to the next. Through <a href="http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/css/">style sheets</a>, authors can suggest an appropriate rendering, such as rendering the inserted content in italics, a different color, or a different voice.</p>
|
|---|
| 44 | <p><strong class=html>INS</strong> may be used as either a <a href="../block.html">block-level element</a> or an <a href="../inline.html">inline element</a>. If used as an inline element (<abbr title="for example"><i lang=la>e.g.</i></abbr>, within a <strong class=html><a href="../block/p.html">P</a></strong>), then <strong class=html>INS</strong> may not contain any block-level elements.</p>
|
|---|
| 45 | <p>The optional <strong class=html>CITE</strong> attribute of <strong class=html>INS</strong> gives a <abbr class=initialism title="Uniform Resource Identifier">URI</abbr> with information on why the content was inserted. A brief explanation for the insertion can be given with the <strong class=html>TITLE</strong> attribute, which may be rendered as a "tooltip" by some browsers.</p>
|
|---|
| 46 | <p>The optional <strong class=html>DATETIME</strong> attribute specifies the date and time of the insertion. The value is case-sensitive and of the form <strong class=html><var>YYYY</var>-<var>MM</var>-<var>DD</var>T<var>hh</var>:<var>mm</var>:<var>ss</var><var>TZD</var></strong>. See the <a href="../values.html#datetime" title="Datetime Values">values</a> section for a full explanation of this format.</p>

| 47 | <p>An example follows:</p>
|
|---|
| 48 | <p class=example><code class=html><P>The CENTER element defines a block whose contents are centered horizontally on visual browsers. <strong><INS CITE="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/appendix/changes.html#h-A.1.2" DATETIME="1997-12-19T00:00:00-05:00"></strong>Note that CENTER is deprecated in HTML 4.0.<strong></INS></strong></P></code></p>
