Headings

Headings are an important way to add structure to you document. Visually heading levels get smaller as the heading number increases. Heading 1 is the most prominent and Heading 6 is the most subordinate. There should only be one heading 1 on any given page. For accessibility, headings provide a navigable outline of the information in your page.

Body Text

Text is a huge part of web pages to provide the reader context, to give sight challenged readers information via screen readers, and to make your site visible to search engines like google. Text comes in various flavors shown below.

Normal, Paragraph, and Div

This is a normal paragraph. Everything after this sentence is in latin for filler. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exerci tation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.

Bold, Italic, and Underline

This sentence is underlined (e.g. U). This sentence is bold (e.g. STRONG). The sentence is italic (e.g. EM). This sentence is all three.

Links

This sentence contains two links; a link you have been to before and a link you might not have visited.

Indented Paragraph (e.g. BLOCKQUOTE)

This is an indented paragraph. Everything after this sentence is in latin for filler. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exerci tation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.

Duis autem vel eum iriure dolor in hendrerit in vulputate velit esse molestie consequat, vel illum dolore eu feugiat nulla facilisis at vero eros et accumsan et iusto odio dignissim qui blandit praesent luptatum zzril delenit augue duis dolore te feugait nulla facilisi. Nam liber tempor cum soluta nobis eleifend option congue nihil imperdiet doming id quod mazim placerat facer possim assum. Typi non habent claritatem insitam; est usus legentis in iis qui facit eorum claritatem. Investigationes demonstraverunt lectores legere me lius quod ii legunt saepius. Claritas est etiam processus dynamicus, qui sequitur mutationem consuetudium lectorum. Mirum est notare quam littera gothica, quam nunc putamus parum claram, anteposuerit litterarum formas humanitatis per seacula quarta decima et quinta decima. Eodem modo typi, qui nunc nobis videntur parum clari, fiant sollemnes in futurum.
