HTML Element: <rp>

[this page | pdf | back links]

The HTML <rp> element indicates what to show in browsers that do not support ruby annotations (for East Asian typography). It is new in HTML 5.

 

It is used in conjunction with <rt> and <ruby> elements (the <ruby> element includes one or more characters that need an explanation / pronunciation, the <rt> element gives that information and the optional <rp> element indicates what to show for browsers that do not support such characters.

 

The attributes it can take are HTML global attributes and HTML event attributes.

 

To create or access such an element in JavaScript see here. The corresponding HTML DOM object supports standard DOM properties and methods. The default style applicable to this element is shown here.
