The <section> element
The HTML Section Element (
<section>
) represents a generic section of a document, i.e., a thematic grouping of content, typically with a heading. Each<section>
should be identified, typically by including a heading(<h1>
-<h6>
element) as a child of the<section>
element.
Here are a few important points to remember about the <section>
element:
- The
<section>
element can be used to encapsulate a group of related content. This related content doesn't necessarily have to make sense if we take it out of the page's context. - A safe and valid way to use the
<section>
element is to place it inside an<article>
element. You can certainly use the<article>
element without a<section>
element. It's recommended, although not required, to include a heading element(<h1>
,<h2>
,<h3>
, and so on) when using the<section>
element. - It can be confusing to know when to use the
<section>
element and when to use the<article>
element. If you're in doubt, you can choose either element. - There can be more than one
<section>
in a single page.
Consider the following example:
<body> <main class="main-container" role="main"> <article class="article-container flex-container"> <section class="main-content"> <header> <h1>The <code><main></code> element </h1> </header> <p>As per the MDN definition:</p> <blockquote> <p>The HTML Main Element (<code><main></code>) represents…</p> </blockquote> </section> </article> </main> </body>
