The cite tag

The cite tag specifies the source of the quotation. The text of the quotation can be specified using the q tag or the blockquote tag.

By default, the content of cite may be italicized (depending on the browser), this behavior can be changed using the CSS property font-style.

Example

Let's create a citation using the q tag and indicate its source using the cite tag:

<p> <q>A quote from a great author.</q> Source: <cite>google.com</cite>. </p>
